Robert Munteanu commented on SLING-8350:
----------------------------------------
I think it's worthwhile discussing the way forward ( or the way out :-) ) with
the Feature Model on dev@sling . I don't claim to have a good understanding of
the solution space yet, but what I understand is that we have three possible
levels of support:
- feature launcher + feature file ( JSON )
- feature launcher + feature archive ( FAR )
- kickstart launcher (fat JAR)
I am not sure which option is "the best", and IIRC at some point we were
discussing FAR vs KickStart.
As I've said, it would be worthwhile to discuss on the dev list.
