Hi all , Being a fresh committee to Jackrabbit I certainly can’t speak for the rest but historically we seperated out as much as possible concerning the http communication.
Toby being the main developer behind vault also spent a significant time to decouple the whole ‚frontend‘ & communication part from packagemanager & the vault plugin when contributing. Also the release scheme and cross dependencies wouldn’t be a good fit - Sling is IMVHO the right home for this and if the contribution comes with the commitment to maintain I see no real reasons to reject it. Contributions in contrib are anyhow rather like in the incubator and time will tell if it’s a useful tool with interest beyond the contributor or not.
