IMHO Groovy is not Java. Just open a Groovy file in a modern IDE (e.g. IntelliJ) and tell me what support do you have for it?Ahmed Mohombe wrote:

Me too.
Please, I beg you, put no Groovy/JPython or other things like this in it. For Got sake, let JAMES be a JAVA project.
Can you explain your objection, or at least clarify it since Groovy is Java.
Either we use groovy, use another container's XML construct to configure James, or invent our own XML structure. What do you suggest?Isn't the Jakarta-commons Digester not good enough?
Besides, what's so complicated to make a simple and verbose XML configuration (so that everyone understands it)?
A simple XML structure can very easily get a simple Swing or Web GUI, so that everyone can edit/change the configuration without too many errors.
Just my 2 cents,
Ahmed.
