A large > set of regression tests will ensure the compatibility with various server > environments like OpenWebBeans and Weld in combination with different > servlet containers like Apache Tomcat as well as JavaEE servers like Apache > TomEE, Glassfish, JBossAS, Resin, etc. > > A lot of our concepts in CODI are very innovative and we plan to include > them in DeltaSpike (depending on the discussions during the incubation > phase). > One of the first CODI features DeltaSpike will implement is for example > the possibility to 'deactivate' parts of the Extensions coming with a > CDI-Extension library (ClassDeactivator). > This concept allows users to decide which parts they like to use from > which extension library. > > As soon as DeltaSpike is a stable TLP (Apache top level project), we plan > to create CODI v2 which removes all parts of CODI v1 which are available in > DeltaSpike and the rest will be ported to the API of DeltaSpike. > A lot of us already use CODI in several projects and therefore you can be > sure that we will continue to improve CODI v1 and the migration to CODI v2 > will be well documented and as easy as possible. > We will also coordinate our CODI v1 releases to ensure that DeltaSpike > incubator releases and CODI will run smoothly inside the same project. > > The initial DeltaSpike team consists of community members of several > portable CDI extensions and all of you are very welcome to join the effort. > > Kind regards, > The Apache MyFaces PMC >
