Yeah... Plus it's still a bunch of code to carry around.
Realistically we need to define remaining tasks first. The branch can I
exist easier now as merging is easier with Git than previously with SVN.
It's worth noting that we have a stable build for the Avro RPC stuff
meaning that is is as stable as trunk. Many tests have also been
implemented for the same.
When it comes to merging at some dark place a long way down the road, I
agree that this should be a new major release.
Having the functionality baked in as separate components is a refactoring
of around 7 or so OODT components. No trivial undertaking, but would mean
that we can cut loose all the XMLRPC code for good.
One con here is that we would need to be dilligent with Pom entries. As
noted on this list a few times recently Pom analysis has indicated a number
of areas where we really need to get OODT on a diet. Many declared but
unused dependencies lying around and several bloated artifacts which
makes my laptop sound like a Rolls Royce engine strapped to the side of my
desk.
Anyways, first thing first, I'll drag the branch up to date with master
(I'll try doing this maybe once every two weeks) then we need to scope out
what remains.
