Scott lewis commented on KARAF-2818:
------------------------------------

>Sorry, I should have been clearer, for adding it to the repos file I though more of the
>etc/org.apache.karaf.features.repos.cfg 
>file then the features.cfg

My first comment is:   if an URL is accepted for a features repo everywhere else, why not in o.a.k.features.repos.cfg?  That seems like a fixable bug to me.

And a question:  where is the o.a.k.features.repo.cfg syntax defined?...e.g.

org.apache.karaf.cellar:apache-karaf-cellar:xml:features:(0,]

ECF has an existing maven repo...but it doesn't have a set of features yet...mostly because I can't find anyone that actually can say what the meta-data must look like to be readable with the above syntax.  Pointers to specs and/or examples would be appreciated.

And a third question:   why two lists?...i.e. why o.a.k.features.cfg and o.a.k.features.repos.cfg?  And if two...and URL syntax can't be supported in o.a.k.features.repos.cfg, why not also o.a.k.features.repos.url.cfg?

My point is that *everywhere else* in Karaf an arbitrary URL is allowed except in o.a.k.features.repos.cfg.   That seems strange to me...as obviously you are trying to allow consumers to install with both maven repos and/or arbitrary URLs...and that seems like a good thing to me.

> Eclipse communication framework (ECF) now provides a feature file for easier installation in Karaf. The link to the repository should be included in the features.repo.
