djencks: right so I think the next thing would be to start working on a kar
project for the demos [18:15]
jamieg: I'm going to split my JIRA for the kar demo in two -- one for the
features-maven plugin and the other for the karaf-maven plugin. They approach
creating kars differently [18:15]
djencks: we could have a kar per demo or one that installs all the demos
yes.... AFAIK the features-maven-plugin doesn't actually work to create kars
which is why I've been hoping 3.0 could be released sooner rather than later
[18:16]
jamieg: very true, but it should according to the docs [18:17]
djencks: and, everything I've been saying is only about trunk/3.0.... [18:17]
jamieg: Oh yes, that i assumed :) I wouldn't change the packaging of demos on a
micro release
2.x assemblies will pretty much stay as they are [18:18]
djencks: I think it would be great to find out if the manual instructions are
correct and comprehensible enough for someone other than me to set up a working
kar project to install the demos but if you like I could come up with at least
a start [18:19]
jamieg: Please feel free to jump in :)
djencks: I've been learning the kar functionality from the docs and from
chatting with you ;)
and others [18:20]
djencks: ok do you think it would be better to have each demo individually
installable or have all the demos in one kar? [18:20]
jamieg: good question :) [18:21]
djencks:if we decided "individually" we could have a demo archetype but it ends
up with almost twice as many projects [18:22]
jamieg: or if we go for 'all' its simple at least
djencks: do we gain anything from individual demos?
djencks: an demo archtype could be useful for custom distro builders
...
djencks: perhaps all for 3.0, then individual for 3.1?
djencks: gets things done fast for 3.0 then build our better functionality for
3.1? [18:22]
djencks: I'll start with an "all" and see how it goes [18:24]
jamieg: (just trying to manage feature creep - a lot of people are really
calling for 3.0.0) [18:24]
djencks: (in particular me :-) [18:24]
jamieg: hehe [18:24]
djencks: ok, good, we have a plan.... have to go now for a bit... thanks!
