Re: [cdt-dev] CDT and Pack200

Check the parent pom where we do signing. I thought we already included the pack200 stuff there.

A couple things to pay attention to:
- pack200 and signing "interfere" with each others since pack200 changes
the class files (don't worry it won't change CDT into another language
support :)). The typical way to proceed is to "condition the jar" (which
means pack, unpack), then sign it, then pack it. But afaik, this is
whole thing should be taken care of by the CBI.
- Bundles who include nested jars (jars within jars), since the process
used to pack and sign pack200 process is not
