About the same topic, what do you think about provide a runtime
distribution based on Karaf ?
We can create a distribution kit based on Karaf + ACE feature.
I heavily think that it should be the target.
The end-user only need to launch bin/ace to have the console and all
runtime bundles up and running. He just has to deploy the ACE agent into
the target instances.

Hi again,
FYI, I propose to add an assembly in 0.8.0 release. The assembly should
provide the following artifacts:
- ACE sources archive (zip/tar.gz)
- ACE agent runtime (zip/tar.gz)
- ACE consoles (zip/tar.gz)
The purpose to give the user the possibility to quickly start with ACE.
WDYT ?

Hi all,
Geert and I are working on fully support of Maven 3 in ACE (properties,
cleanups, etc).
I hope to complete it end of this morning.
In the mean time, I deployed Felix Metatype, Dependency Manager and
Deployment Admin into the ACE m2 repo:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ace/repo/org/apache/felix/
and defined this repo in the ACE pom.
It allows users to be able to build ACE directly without building
previous dependencies.
I think that we are not so far from a release now.
I propose:
1/ to release ACE 0.8.0 asap (I can do it tomorrow). It's a
ReleaseCandidate version. The purpose is to check the release process
(identify if there are some particular points) and document this release
process.
2/ The 0.8.0 will allow us to prepare demo/tests and identify what's the
pending points. My purpose is to be able to prepare a ACE 1.0 release
for end of march, and allow Marcel and Karl to announce ACE 1.0 at
OSGiCon/EclipseCon during the ACE talk.
WDYT ?
