can I help to implement this?

of course!


What "event ideas for 1.3" was Brett refering to ?
any existing issue?

http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ARCHIVA/Event+Framework

Unfortunately work on this stalled some time back.


I would prefer a generic solution to implement extension-point, in
the way I
proposed it.
One or another consumer may be used perhaps for one or another task.
But consumers run only on repo-scan, right?
Action events triggered on artifact-deployment are a different thing
and not
less important.

I'd say if you've got an idea to go ahead with that - we can look at
it early and often and look to incorporate it. The above, if picked up
again, can still support it afterwards. Thanks!

Cheers,
Brett


thanks Brett for the references.
So you mean the consumers-architecture could be and should be replaced by a generic event-framework, that also provides other extension-points like the
ones I suggested?

That's my impression, yes.

That sounds pretty cool to me - but it's also a severe change - looks like a
bunch of work ;-)

Yes, and no. On the database refactoring branch I put in something very basic - I think if we start to introduce a central point to gather the handling, and introduce them in specific cases like the one you want, we can gradually introduce it.

Perhaps we can share the work load? Would you like to go ahead and
coordinate it?


I'm a bit swamped up until ApacheCon next month, but I'm happy to help you get started here, and I'm sure others are interested. If you wanted to share some ideas for how it might work I'm sure we can get something happening.

Cheers,
Brett
