I think the geronimo itests modules are good candidates. It would
be great to have integration tests, but I don't think what is there
is a good starting point.
You and I are pretty much the makers of that mess... I'm fine seeing
it go.
I can't figure out what the xpom plugin is for, so I wonder if we
need it.
It's used by my crack at itests, so we won't need it if we kill them
It makes it so you can add dependencies to a pom whenever you like
(e.g. in maven.xml). Nice for smushing an entire ear down to one
project.xml, for example, as you can build the war and ejb jar in
your maven.xml, add them as dependencies, then use the standard maven-
ear-plugin to build the ear.
We have some contributed demo apps in jira and I wonder if we would
like to remove some of the existing demo apps and replace them with
the new ones.
I haven't dared look in sandbox :-)
As far as clean up in general, I'd like to see us move the plugins
out somewhere to be released individually if we can. Same for the
specs.
