I see your point. Let's see what Adrian says, since it was he who originally asked me to move classpool and deployers into the AS codebase. Reverting this would mean moving some classes back out of AS into AOP or duplicating them in AOP. Having a separate component effectively just means the same as that, with yet another dependency to manage. The classes in question are: org.jboss.aop.asintegration.jboss5.AspectDeployer org.jboss.aop.asintegration.jboss5.VFSClassLoaderDomainRegistry org.jboss.aop.asintegration.jboss5.ScopedVFSClassLoaderDomain org.jboss.aop.asintegration.jboss5.VFSClassLoaderScopingPolicy View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4177401#...
