Hi Sharan and everyone. I propose in complement and summarizing your points the following:
1- deactivate by default all specialpurpose components. Possibly with a convenience task called activateAllPlugins 2- redesign the directory structure to separate main classes from test classes 3- rename the specialpurpose folder to plugins The migration of remote libs is already on its way.

We would also like to get community feedback and comments on each of the following 3 proposals: Task 1 “Replace all the current jars in OFBiz with appropriate remote libraries from a download repository -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The work to replace the jars is ongoing and we have already removed 169 of them. These libraries will now be automatically downloaded by Gradle. Work will continue to remove the remaining files. As we are working through, we are finding library migration issues with some of the specialpurpose components so would like *to propose to deactivate all specialpurpose components by default.* Task 4. “ Move all java source files to\u2002$component/src/main/java and introduce all unit tests in\u2002\u2002$component/src/test/java” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Another area we need to progress is the re-design and changing of the directory structure so that we can separate the Java files between main and test. This will help us simplify the implementation of a testing framework. *The proposal for the directory structure is as follows: componentname/src/main/java componentname/src/test/java* Task 10. “Propose the renaming specialpurpose to plugins or such an appropriate name for clarity” ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We would like * to propose changing the name of the specialpurpose folder to 'plugins'* These are the 3 areas we would like to progress so please feel free to respond with your feedback and comments.
