Folks,
Currently our simple file security module (authentication and
authorization) uses the file "passwords" to hold user/pwd combos, and
the file "allow" to specify whitelist authorization.
I'm currently working on the archetype, and generating it from
support/prototype using mvn archetype:create-from-project. I've noticed
that the generated archetype-metadata.xml does not include these files,
because it expects all files to have an extension.
I therefore propose that we rename "passwords" to
"security_file.passwords", and "allow" to "security_file.allow". This
should solve my problem, and I also think is an improvement in that it
fits better with our naming of properties files, and shows which module
uses these files.
If there are any objections, let me know here.
Cheers
Dan
