Just a minor comment about the stacks repository move:
Recently we moved QSTools config file ( old url: https://raw.github.com/jboss-jdf/qstools/master/config/qstools_config.yaml ) that uses the same download and cache engine copied from stacks-client (copied from forge - Thanks Lincoln) and it worked pretty well (even changing also the repo name besides the organization change)
so github will keep redirecting the old url or how ?
For me "move" means the old goes away.

Hi, I haven't read the whole proposition yet, but just so we're clear : the current stacks 1.0 yaml file must stay available ad vitam aeternam (almost) for existing clients.
We need to triple check moving the repo to a new organization will properly redirect stacks queries. I know redirects generally work on github now, but I don't know about potential caveats/limitations .

Hi all,
I'm resurrecting this subject because Forge Team started to
brainstorm about the Stacks Add-on to Forge.
Max,
Do you have some thoughts/considerations on this:
- Change format (getting the opportunity of repo location change)
vs
- Still using the same format with workarounds
Thanks

Hi all,
As part of the "new organization" plan, it's a good time to update
stacks format since it will be hosted on the new github organization.
I've analyzed the changes need and attached a Stacks 1.1 proposal to
see if everyone agrees on that or if should we keep using 1.0 format
Changes from 1.0 to 1.1
- Rename Licenses to Metadata
Justification: I've been using Licenses today as an metadata
section to avoid repeating metadatas like version,
repositories, licenses, etc:
https://github.com/jboss-jdf/jdf-stack/blob/1.0.0.Final/stacks.yaml#L21-L34
Workaround: Leave it as it is
- add repositoryURL and extraRepositories to BomVersion.
Justification: I've been using labels to to tag what
repositories are Required:
https://github.com/jboss-jdf/jdf-stack/blob/1.0.0.Final/stacks.yaml#L441
- Some BOMs needs more than one repo as JPP ( JPP is built on
top of EAP 6.0.1, but it is using RichFaces from WFK 2.1.0
that is built on top of EAP 6.0.0)
Workaround: Create an standard tag called *repositories* and
add every non maven central repository required.
So I'd like to here your thoughts about it and analyze possible
impacts on this format change.
OBS.: Remember that stacks 1.0 repo is planned to be moved to
jboss-developer github organization. So it's a good change to update
it. The 1.0 and 1.1 should coexist for a while and maybe
stacks-client should have a "migration" feature to permit a smooth
transition.
Thank you
