Hi Andriy
Yeah, I just wanted to show I'm ready to depart with some of RS modules
too :-). You are right though, likely some existing integrations are
still around.

Hey Sergey,
Great undertaking I think! From my side, I would put -1 to oauth module.
You are right, technically it is old spec but it is still
used widely (mostly because it is much simple to integrate comparing to
oauth2 f.e.).
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Andriy Redko

Hi
CXF module base continues to grow - a lot of modules is available, with
some of these modules being obsolete and never used.
I'd like to propose to drop some of these modules in 3.2.0-SNAPSHOT to
make the builds faster, the workspaces smaller and new users less
overwhelmed :-). Once we agree on the final list I can remove them but as
soon as we have at least a single user requesting the module back we'll put
it back in 3.2.1. But in meantime we should give this clean-up a try :-).
The proposed list is below. Dan, others, please add -1 under any item you
feel like worth keeping (but note we will put any removed module back in
3.2.1 or later whenever it is needed again):
1. rt/management-web
I was the one who added it, it was based on a GSOC project and I do think
it is a unique project (users can see logging events in Atom readers), Aki
did some good work around it a couple of years back, but I haven't seen any
user actually asking questions or trying to use it.
Thus it should go. I'll be the 1st one who will put it back if someone
will want to push it further.
2. rt/rs/security/oauth-parent/oauth
This module supports Oauth1 and is also based on the GSOC project.
Removing it might be a bit sensitive as some users did use it few years
back. But OAuth1 is technically deprecated and Oauth2 is now widely
deployed which is where we put a lot of effort into in CXF. I haven;t heard
any queries about it for the last few years.
3. maven-plugin/archetypes: Maven JAXWS and JAXRS prototypes. Can they be
really useful to anyone ? May be we can drop them and put back if needed.
4. integration/jca - I don't even remember what JCA means :-). I vaguely
recall it was some old container spec ?
5. rt/bindings/object
I think I recall Dan explaining awhile back it is a more advanced version
of coloc but I don't think it has ever been used by CXF users ?
6. rt/databindings/jibx
I believe JIBX has not been maintained for many years now, if yes then
lets let it go
7. systests/jibx
8. rt/databindings/sdo
I know it was added on request from one of our previous employers,
which was awhile back. Not sure if we need to keep it though
9. rt/databindings/xmlbeans
Not sure if it is still needed. Looks like SOAP users do JAXB,
occasionally - Aegis
10. services/wsn ?
11. rt/ws/eventing ?
12. rt/ws/mex ?
This is it for now. Please provide the feedback, we can keep this thread
open for few weeks for sure
Thanks, Sergey
10.
