Hi Sacha, when did you come back to work? :-)
I like Sacha's basic idea here. Having EE6 in the name helps a lot.
And I also like 'bootstrap' better than 'minimal'.
I think we still need to decide exactly how many configurations we are
going to ship. Awhile back, Brian asked me to open a jira to change
this stuff in M3. It looks like that would be the time to nail this down.
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-7651
Besides EE6, the other two things that we seem to need in the shipped
configurations are (clustered or not-clustered) and (development or
production).
Here's another stab at the naming:
bootstrap - same as minimal
EE6-web - EE6 web profile
EE6-standard - same as today's 'standard'. I guess we still need this
for TCK?
EE6-full-dev - super-fast boot time, less logging, delayed startup of
admin console, unsecured consoles, JSF2 PROJECT_STAGE set to "Development"
EE6-full-prod - immediate startup of admin console, secured consoles,
JSF2 PROJECT_STAGE set to "Production"
EE6-dev-cluster - same as full-EE6-dev, but with clustered services
available
EE6-prod-cluster - same as full-EE6-prod, but with clustered services
available

Hello, since I've been contributing lots of code recently, let me
chime in ;)
What about:
* EE6-full (aka all)
* EE6-web (aka default)
* bootstrap (aka minimal)
Reasoning:
* reading the thread, even yourself aren't sure if all=default or
all=default+more stuff, what is the difference between standard
and default, etc. Why not making it explicit IN THE NAME itself?
* "minimal" name is not good IMO since people might think it is
minimal in terms of middleware development (or related), but
this is really just a bootstrap with nothing on it. So call it
bootstrap, or WebOS or kernel.
* "default" is really just a trick to know which one to load "by
default", but it doesn't give any clue on what it actually
contains. Why not make JBoss AS start by default the
configuration that has a "++" in front of its name - or
something similar i.e. "++bootstrap" or "++EE6-web". Or, if
you
don't want people to rename configuration folders, create a
"XXX.is.the.default" empty file in the server folder, where XXX
is the default configuration that will be started unless asked
otherwise.
* I agree that jbossweb might need to be rebranded. I'd relate to
the Tomcat brand somehow (such as Tamcot or Tomchat or Tomkatz
;) well, I am sure you'll find smarter ideas :) )
BTW, are all "server/XXX/lib" now centralized in a common folder and
refered to by name in a configuration file or are they still being
replicated all over the place in each and every configuration?
Cheers,
sacha

I see it's changed already, but doesn't it look horrible? Maybe
just drop '-standalone' or
where are our naming gurus? :-)
./server/
