Hi, It's been a while when I approached the idea to build a serverplugins plugin for Geronimo. After some time, when I was about to announce it my hard drive crashed and everything flew away in the blink of an eye. Nothing left thus it needs to be started over. We've got an Eclipse plugin in the devtools project, but no NetBeans one.
The serverplugins module is a bunch of plugins for J2EE application servers. There's no Geronimo plugin and I think we need to take appropriate steps to change it. There are some alternatives - Mevenide (M2 support and once Geronimo becomes M2-oriented it's going to be very easy to combine those two worlds), copying j2ee modules to hot-deploy directory of Geronimo and the last but not least Codehaus Cargo, but it's not the truly NetBeans-oriented approach. It's time to change it. Therefore, I'd like to ask you how important it is to have such a plugin for NetBeans. Would you care to help out and contribute? The work could be conducted in sandbox so no fear it'll be lost when your hard drive blows up. Jacek -- Jacek Laskowski http://www.laskowski.net.pl
