Thanks for working on netbeans.

Some time ago I packaged a small part of netbeans (particularly,
org-openide-util-lookup) into the package openide-util, because a needed
it as dependency of the package freehep-util.

This library is now contained into libnb-platform12-java, so I'd like to
drop my copy. Thus, I ask you these two things:

 1) Could you please add a pom.xml file for openide-util-platform, so I
can use it with maven (that freehep-util uses to build itself)?

 2) Installing libnb-platform12-java requires about 20 MB of
dependencies which are not necessary for just using openide-util-lookup.
How difficult would it be to split the package in smaller library
packages, so one can install them more selectively?

Thanks, Giovanni.
