I'm hoping that it won't be long before the web console is
a separate download that merely connects to WildFly/EAP.
At that point we would not ship web console with the
server and this won't really matter any more.
That might be fine for WildFly, but additional downloads is an
anti-requirement for EAP.
The user doesn't necessarily know the difference as long as he is
connected to the internet. Whether the console app is first
downloaded from the EAP server or from a Red Hat server shouldn't
matter.
We have users that cannot connect to the internet for security reasons.
Then they
can't download the server either. Problem solved. :-)
But seriously, that's a simple matter to address. I'm just pointing out
that it doesn't matter if the browser downloads the console from an
EAP/WildFly server or from somewhere else. It's all the same to the user.
There are great advantages to moving the console out of the distro.
Perhaps Herald or Heiko will explain when they are ready.
I assume that if we do trim the console, it will be for
WildFly only? That's probably a good thing but we would
need to explain why the EAP download is so much larger.
Also note that localization is not just for logging
messages and exceptions. Some DMR operations are
localized too and presumably the result does show up in
the web console UI.

Hey guys,
I was just discussing with Harald could get distro
size down by 25+MB if we would trim our console a bit.
Currently we compile console with 40 permutations, six
browsers (ie6,ie8,ie9,gecko1_8,safari) and eight
languages (en,de,es,fr,pt_BR,zh_Hans,ja,ko).
I think we could drop support for ie6 and get rid of
extra localization with support only EN.
IE6 market share is so low this days that it really
does not make sense to support it in upstream anymore.
Also we don't ship localization of logging
messages/exceptions in WildFy anyway, so why have just
one part localized.
This way we would get down to 4 permutations and our
console distro would be 6.8Mb instead of current 32,3Mb
Also if people want extra localization, they could
always just download full console release and replace
that with jar we ship.
So what do you guys think?
