Eric Charles commented on JAMES-1588:
-------------------------------------

Are you thinking to put this backends module at the same level as server, 
mailbox...?
I proposed the same kind of module some time ago, but we decided to not follow 
that way. Looking back , it sound like this would not have been the best thing 
to do (release management...).
The other way would be to merge all james modules in one structure to make a 
single release. This may be worth to start a discussion on the maliling list.

> As we are starting to develop data tools based on Cassandra, we realized we 
> would use tools we defined for the Cassandra mailbox. But :
>  - We don't want a dependency to the cassandra mailbox in our data-cassandra 
> module
>  - We do not want to duplicate information.
> Hence we prefer introducing a new module, that centralize tools needed by 
> modules relying on Cassandra ( for now the Cassandra mailbox, and the 
> data-cassandra module, Cassandra MPT module ).
> As we think this can be a common need to several backend implementation, we 
> want to create a dedicated project for centralizing back-end tools, that will 
> be calles james-backends. Each back-end ( eg : cassandra, jpa, hbase, etc ... 
> ) will create its submodule in it and will use it in other places (MPT, 
> Mailbox, james (server) ).
> Let us now if you have any feedback on this proposal.
