Maybe I could have saved you the trouble of writing the below email
and the subsequent discussion that ensued if I had only updated this
thread with the statement that I have already reverted back all the
assemblyIds to tomcat and jetty.

Sorry !

Anyway, I think we should go further and also revert the assembly
names too, IF possible. I am not sure how big of an effort it is. But
if M1 goes out with jetty6.zip,  that'll make it one more reason we'll
be less inclined tot change it back to jetty.zip and tomcat.zip later.

Cheers

I don't think the version should be here.

Actually I don't think that we need a version for the jee5 stuff
either.  It should be jee, or probably javaee, adding the version
just means that every release we will have to change the name of the
module and reconfigure everything.  There was j2ee before, which was
effectively the same as jee, it was not j2ee14, which would be the
same as the jee5 that we have now.  I don't think there is a plan to
support more than one version of teh java enterprise edition per G
server release, therefor the addition of spec version to our modules
is unneeded and adds extra complexity which we should lean away from.

Same thing with jetty/tomcat integration... I don't think we want to
(or plan to) support more than one version of these per G server
release, so the version here in the assembly id just complicates
usage.  Meaning when jetty7 is out, then not only do you have to
configure the assembly config with the new artifactId, you also have
to go configure everyone who is using that assembly to use the new
id, that rather negates some of the purpose of that id... its an
alias... saying give me the G server that has jetty.

Blah... I'm just trying to keep build configuration complexity in
check... but I'm getting a bit tired of trying :-\
