Is it not the case that CornerStone is no longer actively maintained (or is it just Avalon) In which case I would prefer moving them into James.
If CornerStone is alive and well, submitting the code back would be a good move. But If my memory does not fail me completely (I often get the issues on Phoenix and CornerStone and Avalon mixedup in my head) the current James 2.1 branch is stuck with an old CornerStone build (actually one that is not even tagged in the CornerStone-CVS, so we cannot recreate it) in which case we also need to put the code into James. So the short story IMO is, put it into James and submit it back if it makes sense (the two implementations may of course differ depending on the CornerStone version). --Søren On Wednesday 22 December 2004 15:22, Jason Webb wrote: > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Soren Hilmer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: 22 December 2004 14:15 > > To: James Developers List > > Subject: Re: Repositories > > > > On Wednesday 22 December 2004 13:50, Danny Angus wrote: > > > Soren, > > > Derby would be embedded in James, it would not be visible to users at > > > > all, > > > > > and require no additional admin or configuration. > > > The messages would not be visible in the filesystem, but that would be > > > > the > > > > > only drawback. > > > > Okay, sounds a little better. > > > > Still I must say I prefer the file repositories, it is a lot easier to > > support > > a mailserver when you can read the mails currently in process directly > > from > > the filesystem. > > This is AFAIK also the approach serious mailservers like Postfix does > > things. > > > > If we go for an all DB solution.
