Core infrastructure, examples and some generically useful libraries.
All GATHERdata components are built with maven2 and java 1.5+.
To build gather-commons:
`cd gather-commons`
`mvn clean install`
The build uses maven-license-plugin to generate and verify
that a license header is present on all source code. So, when
adding new files you'll need to run mvn license:format to
add the header.
As a collection of core libraries, gather-commons doesn't do much by itself. Still, you can run it in an OSGi environment as a sanity check that everything is provisioning properly.
mvn pax:provision
