Looks OK to me - like you, I assume Phil's "funny formatting" comment
relates to the Import-Package/Export-Package statements being wrapped
to 72 characters. Its worth remembering that the MANIFEST is intended
for "machine-consumption" rather than human-readable. The
maven-bundle-plugin that generates those OSGi entries formats them
correctly as per the manifest spec.
