the samples from bndtools. The first example that uses this is the soap =

debugged from eclipse. This pom based repo might be a replacement for =
the current multi bundle distro as it is much smaller and more flexible.

As it would be difficult to have the old and new documentation side by =
side in the wiki I did most of the documentation in the code using =
github markdown syntax. This allows to have the documentation closer to =
the code and also will allow to look into the documentation of previous =
releases.
