So it seems you are suggestion, that if someone wants to build a Sling
application, you clone/fork the feature-starter project, add your own
feature models and build the project, right? So this is kind of a
template for an own application project.
Lets assume we go this route, how would we change the current
sling-starter project, which is the demo application we have?

Can you explain a little bit more how this works for users wanting to
build an application?
Today, you can create your own maven project, add/import provisioning
models and build a startable jar (and a webapp which we don't need to
support for feature models right now). You can then use this jar without
any tooling.

As far as I see the 'sling-org-apache-sling-feature-starter’ this is
not just a test but rather the official way to start Sling XX. It does
have the option to add additional Feature Models (customer FMs) to the
startup and we can also add startup scripts so that it can be launched
as a Unix style service.
I am fine with both approaches but we should make a decision one way
or the other.

Sorry for getting late to this, but is the
slingstart-feature-maven-plugin also creating the startable jar?
While I suggested to create separate modules (which I continue to
think is good), I'm a little bit worried about
"org-apache-sling-feature-starter" - The current starter project is a
demo setup for Sling, making it easy to try out and test Sling.
Maybe it would be better to have the feature equivalent on the master
branch of "sling-org-apache-sling-starter" and we move current master
branch to a "provisioning-model" branch.

Hi
This is a vote to promote the sling-org-apache-sling-feature-starter
and sling-slingstart-feature-maven-plugin to their own Sling Module.
This first module is the Feature Model counterpart of the
sling-org-apache-sling-starter and will create an executable JAR
file. The second is the counterpart of the
sling-slingstart-maven-plugin which will start and stop a Sling
Instance from a Maven run and is mostly used to run Integration Tests.
Sling Feature Starter:
1. Code Location: both are in the ‘sling-whiteboard’ under
'sling-org-apache-sling-feature-starter` folder
2. Proposed Github Repo name (I just added feature into the name):
- sling-org-apache-sling-feature-starter
3. Proposed artifact ids (group id: org.apache.sling)
- org.apache.sling.feature.starter
Sling Start Feature Maven Plugin:
1. Code Location: both are in the ‘sling-whiteboard’ under
'sling-slingstart-feature-maven-plugin` folder
2. Proposed Github Repo names (I just added feature into the name):
- sling-slingstart-feature-maven-plugin
3. Proposed artifact ids (group id: org.apache.sling)
- slingstart-feature-maven-plugin
As requested by Carsten I created separate modules for the Feature
counterparts. The modules work but the are not finished. The Sling
Feature Starter is actually using the Sling Start Feature Maven
Plugin to run the IT tests.
