It's a naming convention we agreed on: the maven module folder name should be the same as the maven module artifact ID. Well, if u chosen to keep all the genealogy in the folder name, modellign after flat 1D maven list, then folder structure can be kept flat too. Call it Windows limitations or Git/Win lack of intelligency, yet you casted aside all potential Windows-based developers. We are aware of the problem and we do plan on fixing it. But such a change will break lots of things, like existing pull request, forks, local checkouts... It's not easy to change the whole layout of a project that's widely cloned. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
