> Instead of associating statically sites (target-platform) when creating a repository, the generate-repository-facade mojo could create some indirection files allowing to access the repository in 2 flavours:
> * One plain content only, without any reference: for downstream project aggregation
> * One that also references its dependencies for easy install and testers
> Example:
> {code}
> /integration-stack  <-- composited without side effects into /earlyaccess/development/luna/
>   content.jar
>   artifacts.jar
>   /withdeps  <--- good for testing/single installs
>      /compositeContent.xml  -> ../ and ../targetplatform-link/
>     /compositeArtifacts.xml
>  /targetplatform-link  <--- point to what is needed for install (not to be used by higher up composites/aggregates [JBT content, JBT IS content, JBT TP, JBT IS TP, etc.]
>    content.xml -> associate pointer to TP using ONLY:
>    <references size="4">
>       <repository options="1" type="0" uri="http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development/luna/" url="http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development/luna/"/> (this currently includes *latest* JBT + JBT TP)
