Last I looked at it, I added a little shell... but if its not maintained at the moment up to all drools features - I still think it should stay around - as it may matter to someone enough to get it up to date if it isn't (help with people coming from jess for instance). </div>

I am looking at cleaning up the build and moving to maven 3, to make it<br>
faster, more reliable, etc.<br>
I am also actively wondering if some modules or files aren't dead code.<br>
First candidate is drools-atom:<br>
<br>
The module drools-atom is in limbo:<br>
- It still exists<br>
- It's not part of any build<br>
- Does it still build? No<br>
-- 'dependencies.dependency.version' is missing for<br>
org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs:jar<br>
- Does it still compile against the latest drools version? Idunno, but<br>
since it's not part of the build, tomorrow's refactor might break it.<br>
- Does anyone use it? If it doesn't build and it isn't released... no?<br>
<br>
I don't think that code is useful to anyone in this state. I do think<br>
it's presence alone slightly complicates the drools sources.<br>
<br>
<br>
What do we do with it?<br>
- [A] remove the directory drools-atom from trunk (it's still retired in<br>
in subversion)<br>
- [B] leave it like it is now. It might be usefull to someone<br>
- [C] add it to the build again, make it work<br>
- [D] create a separate repository "drools-incubator" and move it there<br>
<br>
In my opinion:<br>
+1 for [A]<br>
-1 for [B]: either it builds or it's not in trunk<br>
<br>
<br>
If we all agree that removing dead modules is a good idea, I 'll provide<br>
a list of possible candidates next time.<br>
