L.S.,
While reviewing the recent changes in the assembly types, there were a few things in the assemblies and examples that caught my attention and that I'd like to improve... 1. How about reorganizing the examples into subdirectories to make things a bit more clear? E.g. put all the Karaf demo in examples/karaf/*, put the basic Camel demos in examples/camel/*, put the CXF and Camel-CXF demos in examples/cxf/*, ... I think it might make the distinction between some of the examples a bit more clear and I'm also planning to spend a day writing an 'Examples guide' somewhere this week or next, so it would match the chapters of that guide pretty nicely ;) 2. Do we want/need to ship the JBI examples in the basic assembly? We still want to ship them in the JBI assembly, but for the basic assembly I think it would be better if we add a few more Camel/CXF/ActiveMQ examples instead of confusing people with those JBI examples. 3. Is there any good reason to keep the assemblies in the NMR? They're just causing extra maintenance overhead and I don't think I've ever seen anyone using them. Moreover, some of the examples in there (e.g. the clustering example) actually need bits and pieces from the ServiceMix features assembly to function properly, so I would propose to move the examples to the features project and build the NMR as a set of bundles we use in ServiceMix instead of doing the extra assembly there. 4. We are getting a lot of questions about people trying the HTTP based examples with browser that don't support the cross-site HTTP requests if they just open the HTML files from disk. What would we do to fix that for them? Would it be an option to add an 'examples' webapp that hosts these test HTML files (and perhaps even has a button where you can install/uninstall the example features)?
