just to be clear my idea/suggestions was: A) on Fedora AS 7 have a group that users can become a member of (i.e. jboss-user) which the deployments directory inside jboss-as packaging can deploy to B) provide a ~/.jboss-deployements folder in user home similar to ~/.public_html which works with httpd. just a thought. /max On Feb 1, 2012, at 14:30, Carlo de Wolf wrote: > We had an interesting discussion on #fedora-java in which Max proposed a > feature to allow any user to deploy to the running AS 7 instance. > > I think we all agree that ultimately this is a multi-tenancy issue.

What will happen to the AS folders when the user upgrades to the next version of Fedora? Do they get a new blank (AS installation) slate? Or would the upgraded Fedora, preserve the user deployments?
