Re: [tycho-dev] Build p2 update site from Maven artifacts
If there is already an osgi-manifest no action is taken and the artifact is used as-is.

OK, I see that the Generic Editor adds similar support as the DSL with regards to code completion. I added that to my newest blog post.
One question with regards to the m2e PDE Integration. Does it also generate a MANIFEST if the Maven artifact is already an OSGi bundle, or is this step skipped in that case? As the documentation only talks about using non-OSGi bundles, it is not clear to me what happens to existing bundles. 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Hi,

    I am currently testing the m2e PDE Integration. As I am a big fan of
    the Target Platform DSL contributed by Mikael Barbero to Eclipse CBI
    I would like to see the m2e PDE Integration also in the DSL. (The
    PDE Target Definition Editor is not really useful for big target
    platforms and often breaks the whole development environment).
This comes as no surprise and I remember some concerns were emitted from some PDE contributors about TP-DSL from day 1: any alternative language to do the same thing as a standard one and transpiling to the standard one will have to invest a lot in keeping up to date with new standard features. By using a new language for the same thing, TP-DSL bascially introduced a factory of technical debt, that people who started to rely on will need to cover now. It would have been much more sustainable if the things that make TP-DSL better were at least attempted to be implemented in the standard .target format... 

Good luck finding contributors for this TP-DSL!
In the meantime, if you're willing to open specific bugs against PDE that would allow to make the .target file more usable, that would be welcome; and it may get some more attention as there are more active contributors on PDE than on the TP-DSL.
