We actually don't know until the round of refactoring that's going
to happen starting next week. Myself, Benjamin, John, Oleg, and
Shane will be doing the lion's share of the refactoring in the
project builder, plugin manager, lifecycle executor and the
repository system so we don't know what exactly will work as
expected and how that will effect changes in plexus.
Are you going to post some details beforehand? I'm kind of
interested in fixing the reporting mess.
Kohsuke is going to be at the meetup and I plan to address the idea
or reporting in Hudson and in Maven. There is a proliferation of
duplicated reporting plugins and the crux of the issue is data
generation versus document generation. Maven itself needs to move
toward the production of data. Then anything can pick up the data
and generate reports, or create trending information. But this whole
system needs to be decoupled from Maven's core so really anything
can be worked on independently which is what I'm trying to do with
Vincent and the separation of the rendering engine in XWiki. I plan
to give a presentation at the meetup on the XWiki rendering engine.
Yes, I'm fully in support of this. I did this back to front
originally, trying to replicate M1 functionality and add data point
handling to the reporting-api later, but it never quite fit without
being there from the outset. Unfortunately now the rendering part that
really isn't core is wound in too tightly because there was no way to
do that from within the site plugin where it really belongs. I'm
actually way more interested in getting involved in data point
tracking than rendering now TBH :)
Anyway, I just want to make sure all this stuff cycles through the
list since that's really key to your objective of getting more people
involved. I know my face time/phone time/IRC time is becoming more
limited by the day :)
Thanks,
Brett
