I can see the difficulty pointed out by Jason and the benefit raised
by Dain. I've never liked versioning parts of Geronimo that rarely
change and am all for making things more consumable externally.
The proposal as it stands is fairly generic. Is the idea to relocate
Tx Manager and Connector to be top-level projects withing Geronimo and
build separately or some kind of hybrid in the current tree. If we
are going to release them independently then I think they should be
top-level in Geronimo (and I know thats a lot more work).
I wanted to get a general sense before discussing the details, since
there would be no point if were against independent versioning. I was
thinking we should put each them in a tree which is a peer to Geronimo
trunk. I also think we should generally only use released versions of
the jars in Geronimo (i.e., no snapshots) for two reasons 1) it is much
easier to maintain from a build perspective and 2) is will push us to do
more frequent releases of them.
Not sure I understand the last statement. (no snapshots)
