Hi Everyone Thanks responding to these 3 proposals. Based on your feedback and comments we can move ahead with 2 of these for the changes to the directory structure for java and the renaming of specialpurpose to 'plugins'
For the third, Pierre highlighted that he was against this proposal so we won't be deactivating the all the specialpurpose components by default. However as mentioned previously, we are having library migration problems with some of the components so we can only activate the ones that don't have any issues; the others will not be activated and will need additional work to manage the changeover to remote libraries and the resolution of any startup conflicts. (Just for information the components with issues are BIRT, Ebaystore, ldap, POS and cmssite.) We are also looking for help with these migrations so if you would like to help out fixing the issues with these specialpurpose components then please let me know.
