Re: [jbossdeveloper] [Proposal] One BOM for Wildfly/EAP 7
I was never a big fan of the separate BOM's but I recall that one of the
reasons for this
was to allow JDF/WFK quoickstarts to move a bit faster/independent
without waiting for the full
overall BOM pom to be ready ?
Will that no longer be an issue ?

Hi Everyone,
I'd like to propose that we consolidate our current JBoss EAP BOMs
into
a single BOM. We currently have several smallish BOMs with names like
"jboss-javaee-6.0-with-hibernate" and
"jboss-javaee-6.0-with-security".
Instead I think we could make a single BOM which contains all public
API jar versions and is used throughout the quickstarts whenever an
API
is needed.
The specs project would continue to provide a JavaEE specs BOM for
simple use cases. And the eap BOM project would provide the JavaEE
APIs
and public EAP specific APIs. Note that using this BOM in a
quickstart
would not cause the quickstart to download "all" the API jars, the BOM
only manages the versions of the jars which have already been added to
the dependency tree.
The advantage of this is easier maintenance and a simpler
configuration
for users who currently use more than one of our current BOMs in their
application.
WDYT?
