Hello I really don't feel competent enough to discuss such organization changes. For me having Pax-Web (and Pax-Logging and others) outside of ASF gives me easier release process. But I confess that I don't think much about how Sonatype's OPS4J repos are managed, by whom and using what rules.
Felix indeed has log and http implementations, so adding pax-logging and pax-web to Karaf (even if natural) would be kind of strange at ASF. I'd also never consider "merging" felix.log and felix.http with pax-logging and pax-web respectively, because the latter have some specific features many people got used to (e.g., Undertow backend) What I miss is non existing CI for Pax projects. There was http://ci.ops4j.org/jenkins/ at some point, but it's no longer available. regards Grzegorz Grzybek czw., 20 lut 2020 o 08:06 Jean-Baptiste Onofré < jeanbaptiste.ono...@gmail.com> napisał(a): > That's true, but I think that's also a drawback. > > The leak of governance and the fact we don't have any staging on releases > could be seen as an issue. > > That's why it could be interesting to have this under the "Karaf Umbrella". > > Regards > JB > > On Thu, Feb 20, 2020 at 7:58 AM 'Christoph Läubrich' via OPS4J < > ops4j@googlegroups.com> wrote: > >> I always enjoyed the ease of contribution via github with minimal >> effort.
