Hi All, the Proximity is finally got to RC4.
It has three major improvements: aggregated metadata checksum is correctly calculated, "emergeGroups" that enables proper selective repository aggregation and WS interface publishing using XFire. See: http://trac.abstracthorizon.org/proximity/milestone/Proximity%20Release%201.0.0-RC4 Also, the j2ee webapp modules are "exploded", they comes now in different flavours: Default - as it was till now: Proximity Webapp (Default) is J2EE Web Application with "default" configuration that suits in almost all cases. Default configuration offers Px Core Web Services, uses Spring MVC + Jakarta Velocity for view-tech and DWR as AJAX engine. Demosite - Proximity Webapp (Demosite) is similar to "default": it is J2EE Web Application with "default" configuration that runs on Proximity demo site. Thus, it has few restrictions, including JAR downloading from "public" repositories. Minimal - Proximity Webapp (Minimal) is minimal J2EE Web Application that still have Maven Proxy functionality. To reduce it's weight, view layer uses vanilla JSPs. Indexing is also sacrificed, together with pages that relies on them (Search, Artifact browse). Fast and small. (on the way) PxMaster and PxSlave - Proximity Webapp (PxMASTER and PxSLAVE) is J2EE Web Application similar to "default" configured to act as PxMaster/PxSlave in Proximity chain. Not usable in "every day" scenarios. Meant as "template" for chaining setups. (on the way) Have fun! ~t~
