Do we not already have precedent for something similar?  NMS is a sub-project 
of ActiveMQ but includes support for non-ActiveMQ brokers.

The NMS bits aren't quite the same as this as the initial goal of that was to create a .NET based ActiveMQ client and it sort of morphed out from there. There are some similarities though and in those you can kind of see the problem of putting a bunch of non-ActiveMQ type bits under and ActiveMQ subproject. The NMS project has never grown much of a community of developers to support all the various client implementations, there's many just two people who contribute. As such the project has mostly died, there hasn't been any releases in a long time, an some of the implementations have never seen an official release as there was nobody to manage it. I felt for a long time like NMS would have been better served as it's own project but my desire to work on .NET code is quite low so I never pushed to move it to incubator but really that's what should have happened in my mind.

Yip. That's the idea.  The connection pool was mentioned at the top from

I'm just thinking if we could expand the scope a bit so we won't open a new
incubatorb project for just two libraries.
The initial scope as presented was

Given you've got two concrete one sort of abstract and one etc it seems there's 
some hints at there being more than just two libraries.  The thing I'd prefer 
not to do is to create stuff that gets hidden in the noise of the ActiveMQ 
project which is to create a great messaging broker where it could be something 
that can stand on its own and have its own community etc.

It seems that some actual thought about what you are trying to achieve with 
these proposed bits will help sort out where they should live.  The natural 
thing to do is create new ActiveMQ modules are subprojects but just because 
it's easy to do that doesn't always mean its the best thing in the long run.

Someone could argue that a messaging integration library should live on
Camel as the Messaging Integration project.
Someone could argue that Camel already provides quite a bit of this....

But I won't discuss much this now.  I'm about to travel and won't be able
to answer emails next week.

The JMS connection Pool currently in ActiveMQ could live there

As long as we can define a bigger scope.. otherwise wouldn't be an
overkill to start a project for this?

What's the name? commons-messaging?


but there's already a commons project within apache...


I will be away for 2 weeks... Hope this to be sorted while I'm away ..
.please???


Just kidding though.. if it's not sorted.. I may revisit this route as
well. for now @michael use your or a new github account until we
figure out where.

Hi All

I would like to discuss proposing a new sub project , named
"activemq-extras"

There is some common / generic components not specific to activemq5 ,
artemis, qpid jms that currently live within or without some extras
project
would end up living in one.

Some of these could be:
PooledConnectionFactory
Proposed custom serdes idea
Possible future kafka integrations
Etc.
Given the scope outlined here as well as the aspiration to make this a
cross
cutting set of features that work with clients that aren't part of
ActiveMQ
land but just JMS clients in general then I'd lean towards a -1 of
creating
a new subproject or building new modules into Artemis that provide
these
features.

My suggestion would be to go the route of an incubator project where
you
could work out the goals as aspirations of this new project and build a
community around that.  I think there would be more willingness from
folks
that aren't ActiveMQ centric developers to contribute to a project that
lives on it's own given the current goal seems to be that it's
something
that works with many different JMS client implementations, most of
which
aren't ActiveMQ....

Have a look at the incubator process (http://incubator.apache.org/) I
think
it lends itself to what's being proposed here more so than just
spinning
up
a subproject and starting to write some code.




The idea then is these "extras" are generic in fact they can be
released independently,
don't affect the core products
are generic meaning they can be re-used.
Optional for end users to use.

Cheers
Mike
