0.3.0

This release of Osmorc integrates Eclipse Equinox which is used to resolve bundle dependencies. Now versions and other constraints are taken care of. Thanks to Gerd Wütherich for pointing out to me that Equinox can be used outside a running OSGI system for this purpose.

With this integration the further roadmap changes a bit. Before I was working hard to get the whole manifest parsed. While this is still an important feature to me, it isn’t top priority anymore. The next task on the list is to get definition of a target platform working. As soon as that is achieved, Osmorc will start to be really useful for real-life projects.

Afterwards I will return to parsing of manifests and will provide more cross-referencing and more error recognition and quick fixes.

Note: Integrating Equinox doesn’t imply canceling support for other OSGI implementations. The support for specific implementations will become apparent the first time with the added ability to define a target platform.
