I am looking at cleaning up the build and moving to maven 3, to make it faster, more reliable, etc. I am also actively wondering if some modules or files aren't dead code. First candidate is drools-atom:
The module drools-atom is in limbo: - It still exists - It's not part of any build - Does it still build? No -- 'dependencies.dependency.version' is missing for org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs:jar - Does it still compile against the latest drools version? Idunno, but since it's not part of the build, tomorrow's refactor might break it. - Does anyone use it? If it doesn't build and it isn't released... no? I don't think that code is useful to anyone in this state. I do think it's presence alone slightly complicates the drools sources. What do we do with it? - [A] remove the directory drools-atom from trunk (it's still retired in in subversion) - [B] leave it like it is now. It might be usefull to someone - [C] add it to the build again, make it work - [D] create a separate repository "drools-incubator" and move it there In my opinion: +1 for [A] -1 for [B]: either it builds or it's not in trunk If we all agree that removing dead modules is a good idea, I 'll provide a list of possible candidates next time. -- With kind regards, Geoffrey De Smet _______________________________________________ rules-dev mailing list rules-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-dev
