We discussed this briefly on IRC, however I thought we should discuss it<br>
on seam-dev before we make any concrete decision. To summarise the plan:<br>
<br>
1. Remove the combined jar file from each of the modules<br>
2. If the module has a single implementation, rename it to whatever the<br>
combined jar was called.<br>
E.g. for Seam Catch, the impl module would be called seam-catch.<br>
3. If the module has multiple implementations, then add a suffix to the<br>
artifact name that reflects the individual implementation.<br>
E.g. Seam Reports has two implementations, which would be called<br>
seam-reports-jasper (for Jasper reports) and seam-reports-pentaho (for<br>
Pentaho).<br>
4. Leave the API naming as it is, e.g. seam-reports-api.<br>
<br>
The idea is that by importing the simplified module artifact name (i.e.<br>
"seam-xxx") you would get the default implementation, which in turn<br>
depends on the API. The advantage of this is that we won't break<br>
backwards compatibility - e.g. someone currently declaring a dependency<br>
on "seam-catch" in their pom file won't have their app broken when we<br>
rename the modules. Also we remove the complexity introduced by having<br>
a combined jar in the first place.<br>
<br>
If you can spot any issues with this, please speak up now ;)<br>
