Hi,

As it goes for new subsystems and changes, on my todo list are:
- new undertow subsystem - we have pretty clear idea of what it should look like in the end. This should be finalized for beta
- new io subsystem, this is essentially split part part of current undertow subsystem (workers, buffer-pools) into its own subsystem, so all other subsystems can utilize it (i.e. remoting and undertow)
- addition to security subsystem for global configuration of SSL so all subsystem will be able to use it. i will send mail about describing this in more detail shortly.

There might be some minor changes to mail subsystem, but i cannot confirm that yet.

A couple points re: allowing teams who provide management tooling for
the AS to plan for AS 8:

1) Major subsystem changes

If you are responsible for a subsystem and expect to create a new
subsystem for AS 8 or to make significant modifications to the
management API exposed by an existing one, please reply to this thread
with a brief summary of what you expect to do. This will give Heiko
Braun a chance to plan.

2) Management API Freeze Dates

The roadmap Jason has laid out will of course involve some changes to
the management APIs exposed by the AS core and by its subsystems. In
order to allow tooling that depends on the management APIs to react to
any changes we make, we'll need to complete changes to the management
APIs in advance of the July 11 CR1 date.

After discussions with Heiko Braun, we agreed upon the following
"freeze" dates for the management APIs:

1) June 11 (Beta release date) -- no new subsystems after this date, no
substantial changes to the core management API after this date, no large
new features in existing subsystems after this date.

2) June 25 -- final management API freeze. No further management API
changes except minor bug fixes that will not affect the console.

If you have any concerns about making any of these dates, please speak
up now.

Thanks,
-- Brian
