Adding some more thoughts to it. First of all, at least for Pax-Web the Actions seem to work as a ci replacement. So basically everything runs smoothly. Regarding keeping Pax-Web as part of ops4j or Apache Karaf, I have no strong preference. It's just been an Idea, as it felt quite natural, as the main consumer is still Apache Karaf. So basically I'm fine with any way we proceed.
Coming back to the Git-Hub Actions, as a CI replacement. It does work quite well, it would be great though to have an actually "green" build again ;) regards, Achim Am Fr., 21.
