Re: [jboss-as7-dev] JSF Groovy support in AS8?

I say that we should leave it out. Unless the user wants the exact version of Groovy that we are shipping it may not actually be helpful anyway. There are lots of things that we could ship that 'could be useful to some users' (e.g. Spring, pretty much every java web framework), however unless there is a compelling reason to include them I think we should just let the user package the exact version they want in their jars.
