About this plugin

As you may know, Apple has dropped Java development from OS X excluding security patches.

mojo's osxappbundle-maven-plugin depends on Apple's Java launcher, so it does not support Java version 7 and future.

Oracle's Java Application Bundler supports other Java runtime (including Java 7, 8 and more), but it does not support maven.

I merged both and fix to work as a maven plugin that supports latest Mac OS X.
