I agree that Orbit duplicating a bundle that exists in a usable state upstream can be the root of many other issues. As we have an example here that this has a cost to troubleshot, and that there was probably a cost in setting up the Orbit clone;
There is probably a simple reason: Doing the same as before. If projects are used to consuming from Orbit since many years, they will probably continue to do so, unless someone basically stops the process for accepting new Orbit uploads. Quite honestly, even I had the impression that both using Orbit and Maven directly are perfectly fine, until this discussion started. That being said, I also have one more concern: Orbit simplified many projects using the same version of a library, by assuming that new releases would all use the current Orbit update site at time of release. If every project has a locally wrapped Maven artifact instead, won't that lead to everyone consuming another version, depending on when that entry in the target was last updated? Or is there something in SimRel infrastructure that magically unifies this somehow? As said before, multiple versions of a library are generally not a problem, unless we later notice that some Apache Commons library had a binary incompatible change in a service release (already happened), which is why I would expect more real world incompatibilities at runtime. Any solution to this version mix?
