I'm really interested to know how do that because in my mind git is an
atomic system, so I have some difficulty to show how we can cut a block
of a repo to push it in an other.
I hope I'm wrong and I'll be learn something :)

Edit:
As Deepak mentioned, we should check the possibility of preserving git
history while migrating and what the ASF approved approach ist.
Unfortunatly I could not find information regarding what the ASF
approved approach in a case like this is. Can someone point me in the
right direction?
Thank you,

Hi everyone,
I created a pull request for migrating the rest-api plugin into
ofbiz-framework. Now I am wondering about two things:
how to go about the eventual removal of the rest-api plugin from the
ofbiz-plugin-repository. Naturaly it would be best to keep it as a
plugin for a while, to ensure people using rest are not forced to use
the latest ofbiz version containing the migration. My idea is to
already create a jira issue for its removal and link it with the
current one and tackle it at an appropriate point in time. How many
versions do you think we should still keep the old rest-plugin?
Also people using the plugin need be informed once they migrate to a
version with the migration done, as running both the old plugin and
the migrated version might cause issues. Also we don't want people
accidentaly developing on the plugin-repo version. Any ideas on how
to effectivly communicate this? Maybe there is an apropriate
wiki-article i can append this information.
Next i will tackle bringing our improvements into the rest-api as
well as the ideas that have already been mentioned (@Nicolas webapp
docs i already renamed, as it was a minor change ;)
Best regards,
Lukas
