Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-9182:
----------------------------------------
Complexity, that's also my point. With a pullPluginSourceAll you have to
maintain it each time you change the content of the plugins folder. While
setting svn:externals is done in seconds for "eternity". Committers, users
don't need to use pullPluginSourceAll. The plugins are already there checked
out with the rest (for now ofbiz-core, alter another externals can be set for
ofbiz-framework and ofbiz-core as Jacopo suggested, and what-not anyway). For
users using working copies, if they don't want to use a plugin they can either
deactivate it or simply get rid of it by deleting its folder.

> This issue is related to the discussion found in [this
> thread|https://s.apache.org/aohk] in which the community approved
> restructuring our repositories. To achieve this task the following needs to
> be done (in this order)
> # Update the gradle scripts to assume that no plugins exist in the plugins
> directory by default and no component-load.xml exists. It should follow the
> same logic in loading the components as found in the ComponentContainer
> class. Also the activation and deactivation of plugins happens in
> ofbiz-component.xml, not in component-load.xml
> # Add a new task to gradle called pullPluginSource that retrieves a plugin
> from subversion and defaults to the official plugins repository of Apache
> OFBiz. This task mostly serve "Trunk" because it always needs the latest
> source code of the plugins.
> # delete plugins/component-load.xml
> # move all plugins to a new repository called
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/ofbiz-plugins
> # move the core framework to a new repository called
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/ofbiz-framework
> # fix buildbot to point to the new framework location
> # update documentation where applicable including README.md
