Related: #3886 Motivation: We were including OSGi manifests in sources/javadoc JARs, and OSGi container treats them as correct dependencies when resolving from OBR repository, which is incorrect. Runtime fails with non-descriptive ClassNotFoundException as a result. Modifications: - Do not include the OSGi manifests in sources/javadoc JARs - Include Eclipse-related manifest entries in sources/javadoc JARs Result: Better OSGi compatibility

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
