Hi Everyone, As per the discussion [1], we received feedback [2] during our last grails-core release about how we need to include better instructions on building our project from a source distribution. The easiest path forward is to merge grails-forge & grails-core so that the build systems can be integrated and the same build steps used in CI can be used in the source distribution.
This vote proposal is to merge `grails-forge` into the `grails-core` repository under a `grails-forge` directory. We would use the includedBuild feature of Gradle to substitute the grails version in the grails-forge build. This approach allows for a custom version of grails built from the same source with common build instructions & it keeps the grails-forge repository isolated under its own gradle build to prevent any conflicts with Micronaut. Moreover, since we know people have forked forge to customize it, this allows them to continue to fork from a single repository if needed. After this change, the grails-forge repository would be updated to point to the new nested folder under grails-core & archived. The vote is open for the next 72 hours and passes if all binding votes are cast in favor. [] +1 proceed with the proposal [] 0 I don't have a strong opinion about this, but I assume it's ok [] -1 Do not proceed because ... Here is my vote: +1 (binding) -James [1] https://lists.apache.org/thread/w6k2r5nf7l129t5cgc27x00w5ghtjkn5 [2] https://lists.apache.org/thread/ptkkr19tkrdpmjlx1330cl91l3bbnzvc
