Start of thread to discuss any concerns/issues/questions with the
vote for the Server Repository plugin for Geronimo 2.1.1
I'm inclined to vote -1. Nothing to do with the plugin, per se. It
looks fine. It's really a server issue...
Using a 2.1.2-SNAPSHOT server, the plugin is evaluated as
"Installable". However, the plugin won't install because of a
dependency on 2.1.1 artifacts. I think we need to demonstrate that
we can handle this simple migration scenario, before releasing any
more plugins.

I understand your concern but I don't buy the logic of a -1 vote on
the plugin. So we should not release a plugin for 2.1.1 that works
fine on 2.1.1 because of a concern with the 2.1.2-SNAPSHOT server
which is not even yet released? It seems to me like your issue
would really be with the 2.1.2 server when that eventually goes up
for vote.
Yep. I'm not being entirely logical, just drawing a line in the sand.
I'd have the same opinion about a samples vote or a 2.1.2 server vote.
I'm not saying that it's the plugin's fault. My assumption is that we
can fix the migration issue by using artifact aliases in 2.1.2.
However, if we find that there's some change needed in the plugin,
itself, we should be fixing the problem, now.
