Any responses to this? I've heard nothing yet.

DNA 0.1 introduced the concept of a sequencer, and we created a
"sequencers" folder (under trunk) where we've been putting the
projects that provide sequencer implementations. With DNA 0.2,
we've also introduced the concept of a connector and - not
surprisingly - placed all of the connector implementations in
projects under a "connectors" folder (under trunk). Recently we
introduced a third kind of extension point: the MIME type detector.
We currently have only one implementation, but there certainly is
the possibility that we'll have more. And really, the "dna-maven-
classloader" is another type of extension.
But three different types of "extensions" doth make a pattern, and I
wouldn't be surprised if we have more. Rather than have different
folders under trunk for these different types of extensions, I'd
like to make a single "extensions" folder (under trunk) and move all
sequencer, connector, MIME type detector, and Maven class loader
projects into that one folder. The project naming convention helps
keep things clearly identified, all of these extensions really are
optional (easier to describe in the documentation), we'll simplify
the directory organization, and it will make it easier if any
extension project wants to provide more than one type of extension
(say, a detector AND a sequencer).
I'd like to schedule this to have a minimal impact on our
development environments, so please let me know whether tomorrow is
a good time to do this. If not, please let me know a time that
might work better for you. Feel free to reply to this email or
comment directly on
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/DNA-191.
Best regards,
Randall
