I have noticed several questions recently regarding the JBoss
deployer code
that is at codehaus and after looking into the code a bit I am
wondering if
anyone is interested in moving that to Apache under the platforms
module
similar to the geronimo plugins. One of the main reasons that the
deployer
is not working with 3.2 or 3.3 is that the dependencies (specifically
exclusions of transient deps from servicemix-core) are specific to
each
ServiceMix release and the current JBoss deployer code is specific
to 3.1.2.
I have fixed the issues locally to make things work with 3.2 and
3.3, but
while I am at it I wanted to see if moving it to the ServiceMix SVN
was
something worth exploring.
I looked into the whole GPL issue and since we are only compiling
against
GPL code that is available on maven central repo and not shipping or
packaging any GPL code, I believe there are no issues with licensing.
1. I thought jboss was lgpl not gpl, could you verify which license
you are actually talking about?
2. I thought java code that imported gpl classes was gpl
3. After looking at the mysql java driver jars on maven central repo
I have some doubts they are ok with the mysql licensing so I would be
very careful about making any licensing assumptions based on anything
found on maven central repo.
Have you been following the recent discussions on code that uses lgpl
code on [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't think a policy is entirely
clear yet but may be fairly soon.

This is just an idea, so any thoughts?
Thanks,
