Description

It would be nice if the iPojo Maven plugin could consume xml metadata directly from my pom.xml rather than look for a separate metadata file. This makes sense because the metadata.xml is used only at build time and does not progress to become a resource bundle. So it's not realy a resource - it is more part of the build scripts. And as such it's best if it can be integrated into the ultimate build script - the pom.
Also this will match the way metadata is specified to the BND maven plugin. So we would have all data related to the construction of an iPojo bundle laid out in the pom.
