Henning Schmiedehausen commented on SHINDIG-279:
------------------------------------------------

Uhm, as a "default, this is how a cache should look like" implementation, this 
is likely to be overkill. And it drags in another dependency which in turn 
might drag in others. I'd say that the shindig core itself should be as lean as 
possible. An ehcache based, production-ready cache is nice but is it needed to 
get started? Does it add complexity that is not needed to get the sample 
container running?

An Apache project need not to have an preference towards fellow Apache 
projects. EHCache is fine, as long as the license is compatible (which I 
believe it is). We should never sacrifice technical advantages just for the 
sake of "using another Apache project" but judge all projects based on 
technical merit and then decide.

> If the the Gadgets server is going to perform caching, then a configurable 
> cache that has all the features that you might expect in production. Attached 
> is a patch to put ehcache behind the Cache interface and introduce a 
> ShindigCacheManager, that registers with JMX for statistics and management. 
> The patch is fully integrated into the gadgets server guice config, with 
> tests for each class. It also appears to startup Ok.
