Need a way for OSGi bundles to add to the MoML Filters

[cxbrooks]

A Java package can appear at most in one loaded OSGi bundle in an application.

We have a number of Ptolemy II OSGi bundles that have completed the Contribution Questionnaire process for third party libraries (see https://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/Contribution_Questionnaire#Third_Party_Libraries and Bug #70: Ipzilla issues for Triquetrum third party code)

If someone wants to add a Ptolemy actor that is in one of the packages in one of the bundles that have passed review, then either the bundle needs to be re-reviewed or the actor needs to be renamed.

In general, we don't want to request frequent reviews.

So, we should augment the system so that a bundle can register a MoMLFilter that will cause the MoMLParser to read in a model file that refers to the actor with the old ptII package name and instead look up the new Triquetrum package name.

I wrote a short text about how to address this situation on our wiki .

Is that sufficient for this issue?

To close this, I want to try out the process.

My previous comment was on the wrong bug.

We can close this bug because we have Bug #90 Document the process of adding an actor.
