I don’t buy in to that at all - having to hit refresh on the web browser in 2014 to see if the message count has increased just doesn’t cut it - and it hasn’t for a long time. As has been said before, the argument about shipping a console to compete can be used for a container too - but Karaf doesn’t, it makes it optional - and that’s a valid point of view that’s worth replicating. > Providing an even playing field for consoles shouldn't be ActiveMQ's > primary concern.

Or point people to a host of alternatives that would enhance the user experience. What I really don’t understand is that the people who are active committers, and actually fix the security issues as they come are all saying get rid of the console and our views are being ignored. Its not our core competence, nor should it have to be - we are writing a message broker. If you feel strongly about it you are of course more than welcome to help write a new console that can be incorporated at a later date. > > On Fri, Jan 17, 2014 at 11:27 AM, Hadrian Zbarcea <hzbar...@gmail.com> wrote: >> James, >> >> 5.
