Hello,
I am currently building a simple replication between two Jackrabbit instances. 
I've started off using (synchronous) Observers/Events but I am facing some 
challenges due to
the (intresting?) event order.
E.g. I add a file (using webdav) I see the following events (in that order):
PROPERTY_ADDED,2@4376:  /Somefile.png/jcr:content/jcr:data
PROPERTY_ADDED,1@4377:  /Somefile.png/jcr:content/jcr:mimeType
PROPERTY_ADDED,7@4378:  /Somefile.png/jcr:content/jcr:primaryType
PROPERTY_ADDED,5@4379:  /Somefile.png/jcr:content/jcr:lastModified
PROPERTY_ADDED,5@4380:  /Somefile.png/jcr:created
NODE_ADDED@4381:                        /Somefile.png/jcr:content
PROPERTY_ADDED,1@4382:  /Somefile.png/jcr:createdBy
PROPERTY_ADDED,7@4383:  /Somefile.png/jcr:primaryType
NODE_ADDED@4384                 :/Somefile.png


Of course I can not replay the events in that order as some parent nodes may be missing. 
I could re-order them but then this would at least require some "unit of work" 
demarcation as I operate on stream of events (and thus need to cluster/chunk) the events.
Is there a reason why the events are emitted in 'reverse' order (I would assume 
per API the node was created first)?
Is there a way to influence this?

Afaik PERSIST (event bundling) is work-in-progress in unstable, would that be a 
candidate as Unit-Of-Work marker?

Hallo Ingo!

PERSIST events are stable, in that I'm not aware of any problems with them. I believe they should be in 2.4.0.

Best regards, Julian
