That seems like a fine step for now.
Once we have better portal server integration (what is the status of
Jetspeed 2 or a newer Pluto anyway?) we'll probably want to really
split out the console features (and put all the portlets in modules
near the features they go with). I think we can also find a way to
eliminate the console-core package. So it may eventually collapse
back down into a single EAR+WAR or even a single WAR, but I think
that's longer term.
If you go ahead with this, please don't make the change in the 1.1
branch, just in head.
Thanks,
Aaron
