Yah, I'd love to hear it if anyone can pick holes in it, as I don't
want to steer down any bad tracks repository wise either.
I'm not a huge fan simply because I like the simplicity of
"everything
in one place". But I'm having trouble coming up with a really huge
problem with it, other than the way it smells to me in general. I can
understand both perspectives on the issue.
I have some small concerns around making this far-reaching decision
based on the needs/request of what seems to be a single "customer".
I'd prefer to let this be an open issue for a while and revisit it in
6mos, allow other customers to make their own possibly similar
comments/demands, and see how it feels/smells in early 2008.
That's probably wise as I feel this would have nothing but
detrimental effects. The squeaky wheel doesn't get multiple
repositories in my opinion.
If this is the case, how will we file it in JIRA? Do we need a "needs
votes" version? Or just back to 2.0.x with a comment in there?
How many users would you want to request it before thinking the use
case is valid?
As it is possible with Proximity to solve this problem anyway.
It's possible with Archiva too, but James has given what I feel is a
perfectly valid reason why that's a pain, and it ends up in the same
logical result (a repository that has everything, but appears not to).
Cheers,
Brett
