[kura-dev] IPOJO Support

Dear Kura Developers,

First a bit of feedback. I find the project very interesting and would
love to develop some stuff for my raspberry PI. But to be honest, some
months ago when I tried the Kura Hello World example, I found it quite
long and intimidating. In one of the later steps in the tutorial,
Eclipse gave me some error like "Null pointer exception", I could not
continue and that's where I stopped. Too bad.

I have quite a bit of experience working with Karaf-based OSGI
environments and my favorite way of writing OSGI components is using
maven + IPOJO. This works in any IDE that supports maven. If there are
any special needs, one can provide some maven archetypes and people
are ready to roll their component.

Question 1: wouldn't a Maven + Felix build-plugin be a better
development paradigm than using Eclipse plugins?

Question 2: is there a way to use IPOJO-based components with Kura?

Question 3: Can I develop OSGI components using "my methods" and just
provide the jar and not generate a dp?

Best regards,
Constantin
