The parent folder named "eclipse-plugin" is misleading :) The folder consists of multiple plugins... The following folders are the individual "plugins" that make up the org.apache.geronimo.feature feature.
org.apache.geronimo.core
org.apache,geronimo.ui
org.apache.geronimo.deployment.model
org.apache.geronimo.runtime.v1

(Plugins need to be bundled within a feature project to be able to be installed using the update manager). So users will be installing the "geronimo-feature" not the "geronimo-plugin(s)".

Inside each of the plugins folder, are the individual source folders. You can think of each of these plugins as individual maven projects. As far as the build file, yes, this is the next step that needs to be worked out, to the add the build files in each of the projects if we choose to build with maven.

Does that help?

Also, why is the plugin code structured as it is?

/Users/geir/dev/apache/geronimo/trunk/sandbox/eclipse-plugin $ ls
org.apache.geronimo.core org.apache.geronimo.feature org.apache.geronimo.ui
org.apache.geronimo.deployment.model    org.apache.geronimo.runtime.v1

Any reason why we couldn't have a conventional structure of a source directory and a build file and such? :)

Patches?  We don't need no steenkeeng patches...

884 - please resubmit and grant ASF license
885 - I couldn't get this to apply successfully. I'm not sure why. Most chunks failed.
888 - done
907 - failed like 885. I figured I'm doing something wrong, but it's just not obvious.

Would one of the committers mind checking in the patches for 884,885, and 888? I'm making changes on source files that already have existing pending patches in these jiras and don't want to introduce new patches until their checked to avoid conflicts when merging. For my knowledge, how is this handled? Are cumulative patches easily handled? i.e What happens if i have Patch-A based on revision 1 on File-A. Then I introduce Patch-B on File-A also based on revision 1 (but includes changes that went into Patch A). Since both of the patches are based on the same revision # I would assume that only one of the patches can be applied without errors or conflicts. What happens when the second patch is applied since the patch is no longer based on the revision specified in the patch file? If the second patch cannot be applied, how is one expected to know which patch to throw out?

Thanks.

Sachin.
