as described below, it would be nice to update the Infinispan forge
plugin to use Forge 2?

We probably should think about what it would mean to help people get
started with our projects using Forge. The Eclipse integration looks
very impressive and very much how I wish I could work to add layers.

I'll add it to the team meeting agenda.

Check out the video describing Forge 2 and where we are headed:
   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dpou-FWWatI

Just a quick update on the Forge project. This video will show you
what we've been working on for the past while: namely a new
architecture to allow extreme embed-ability, and real code re-use
between addons (using our Modular container, called Furnace)
https://github.com/forge/furnace (based on JBoss Modules and Maven).
It does not go into great detail into many of these things, but is
more of a high-level overview of the goals and features.

So what does this mean for your project?

 1) Primarily, this means that you'll be able to work with us to
create tools for your project that run in all of our supported
environments and IDEs. Ideally this tooling should be focused on
getting users started with your projects quickly, so if you're
interested in having a Forge plugin for your project, please send me
an email off list, and we will get the process started. We are
currently preparing for the launch of our new website, so it will
probably still be a few months before we can do any intensive project
addon development with teams.

 2) What this means in reality is that you can deliver tools that will
run in JBDS and the command-line (and eventually IntelliJ, and
NetBeans, and Web IDE), without worrying about coordination with an
actual product release. Your release cycle is completely independent
of ours. (Unless you are waiting for a new feature that is not yet
released.)

To learn more about Forge 2, please visit our github repository:

Expect to hear more from us soon :) We want *YOU*... and your projects
of course :)
