Ross Gardler commented on WOOKIE-26:
------------------------------------
CSS is working fine for me. I do remember having to do a jetty config tweak to
make it work (probably same for JS). Can't recall what it is, but it works on
my clean machine.
Yes, the problem with automatic dependency resolution is that it pulls
everything. I've excluded some jars already, but we have to be careful about
excluding too many. They are only pulled down if one of the dependent jars says
it is needed. If we actively exclude them from the build and later use a part
of a library that needs that dependency we end up with a broken system. Since
we can't predict what third parties are going to do with development of Wookie
it is, in my opinion, safer to leave the dependencies in.
Ivy and Maven use the same repository, so each jar is only ever pulled down
once.
Nice to know Shindig doesn't just work - we'll address that when Wookie works
in this mode.
I suspect that you can see enough of what I'm trying to do here to make a
decision as to whether you think this approach is the right one to take.

> A key objective for any open source project is to minimise the barriers to
> entry for new developers. Currently a prospective developer needs to jump
> through quite a number of hoops to get started (install tomcat, install
> mysql, configure database, set up realms etc. etc.)
> On the mail list it was proposed and approved that we would create a version
> that used Apache Derby (thus getting rid of the GPLd MySQL dependency) and
> Jetty to provide a pre-configured development environment requiring zero
> setup.
