Eric Charles commented on JAMES-1376:
-------------------------------------
Yes, the maven debian profile can do some more work, such as moving and
renaming the template files.
We can rename the current *.xml configuration files to *.conf, that will make
things more obvious.
Upon the *.xml files, there are also a few properties (jmx.properties,
database.properties) to deal with, and also the spring context definitions
(xml) which are now in META-INF/org/apache/james and embedded in jars. These
are more system-wide definitions, and not configuration. In my sense, it should
not be accessible to a end-user, even not to a mail server administrator.
> Config should belong to their modules, shipping should only contain templates

> Now that JAMES-1002 is completed, we can look at further OSGI working and
> also configuration shipping.
> The proposal is:
> - Move the default configuration to their own module (smtpserver.xml to smtp
> module...)
> - Have some templates (smtp.xml.template ) shipped so a administrator can
> override the smtp.xml with the provided template. We should use the files
> https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/app/trunk/src/main/config/examples.
> This has a benefits that these rich configured files will be used and
> reviewed along the recent changes.
> @Ioan, I wonder if the *.xml.template would work with JAMES-1343?
