My thougts are that we need to transform the existing jbossbuild projects under: https://svn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/microcontainer/trunk/ into a maven based build, and break up the container project in the process as its jboss-container.jar artifact is too coarse. At a minimum, it should probably be broken up into projects for the following packages: P1 org.jboss.classloading P2: org.jboss.metadata org.jboss.repository - maybe should be dropped as metadata is replacing it P3: org.jboss.net org.jboss.virtual - VFS code P4: org.jboss.annotation org.jboss.beans org.jboss.classadaptor org.jboss.config org.jboss.joinpoint org.jboss.reflect Every project should be further broken up into an spi/api artifacts for the spi packages, and a plugin artifact for the plugin/implementation packages. The aspects in the aop-mc-int project should be in a separate common aspects project. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3990814#...
