Ok.
2. Keep modules/groupcom as a separate module
The reason I suggest a separate module, is cause it is a fairly
complex component and will have
a fairly large documentation base, it might be better to keep it
separate and have it
release separately from the core. That way, a busted IO component,
will not set back the tomcat release.
This sounds ambitious, given the testing that ensures that the
clustering is not "busted" in a particular release is only done weeks
later.
not sure I understand.
Similarly, the plan about big docs is fine, but I didn't see anything
being started at the moment.
it is ambitious, but it happens to be that I am now in a position to
dedicate way more time than I have ever had before.
There are docs have started,
http://people.apache.org/~fhanik/tribes/docs/introduction.html
paused at the moment while I am developing HTTPS connector with java.nio
(was a little tricky to get my head around but it should be done next week).
I would like to keep the Tomcat build and packaging simple, so this
will mean that all external modules would be external components then ?
sure, I understand, shouldn't be very difficult at all.
if you want to include it at build time, then you can just invoke the
build script under modules/groupcom/build, and generate it directly from
there,
or we can keep versioned binaries.
was there ever a decision to have TC6 completely module-less? I don't
remember a final decision on that, do you remember the status of those
conversations?
3. Storeconfig - this is Peter's baby and would be his choice.
I personally would suggest a rewrite of it and have a storeconfig
that is not dependent on the classes of tomcat,
ie, storeconfig today has one class for every component in tomcat,
so as soon as you swap out a component to a custom class,
there is no saving for that component anymore.
It could be equally easy to create a completely standalone
configuration tool.
But since I am not that familiar here,
I'd prefer to leave that decision to Peter if he has time to
maintain it in TC6.
A rewrite plan is not realistic at this time.
for sure,
Rémy
