Dan,
I support the move to git. I think it will help the community contribute
easier and provide the committers to have more control over what goes into
the master branch. It's a lot easier to work with distributed, published
repos, than with a ton of patch files.
Indeed. We could cite a number of other benefits as well, such as being able
to develop locally and to share prototypes w/ collaborators before having to
worry about pushing upstream. There have actually been some long threads
discussing all of these benefits, so I won't try to rehash it all.
The motion I'm suggesting at this point is, let's just cut over now. No one
can build these modules anyway (unless they have seam-parent stashed away in
a local Maven repo), so let's just make the leap.
Another reason is that the Seam repository in general is so screwy right now
with a ton of restructures (just look at FishEye to see the bizarre history)
that we should just break away from it. I don't mean to sound downtrodden,
this should be seen as an opportunity!
