Realistically JBoss Threads (and a few other projects) are primarily
consumed by just WildFly and Quarkus (which is also making the move to
Commonhaus). It would be unfortunate if these projects were left behind due
to not fitting cleanly into one or the other camp, despite both camps being
moved to the foundation. I am not quite sure what to do about it though.
Moving the projects individually seems silly, but other than that I don't
know of any other options.
If you want it to go along with WildFly, I think it's fine. I'm sorry for
not stating that up front; I was kind of focused on the other ones in
'jbossas' that I *think* are 98%+ purely WF, so I pretty much assume they'd
go as part of WF. I didn't want to assume that with Threads.
I confess though that I have no idea about what the expectation is on the
Commonhaus side about this kind of thing. Step 1 is the simple application;
once we do that if they're interested in having WF I'm sure we'll talk
through these kinds of issues.
