Agree that it is better to have one GEP, which supports all the versions. But I am thinking that we may need to consider more for the GEP version numbers. In the past, I guess that, while users installed Geronimo 2.2.0, from the version, they may know that GEP 2.2.0 will include the support for the same server version.
Actually, I am thinking that whether we still need to keep those old server supports, I remembered that some GEP developers have complained for maintain those old adapters. 2012/7/13 Forrest Xia <[email protected]> > > > On Thu, Jul 12, 2012 at 10:51 PM, Johannes Weberhofer < > [email protected]> wrote: > >> Dear John! >> >> I'll like to bring this into discussion again: >> >> Is it really necessary, to have so many GEP versions in parallel? >> Shouldn't there be always one version which supports all current Geronimo >> versions? >> >> Currently, there is eg.
