I'm curious what impact it would have on people if the build and dist modules were moved under galleon-pack and the ee-build and ee-dist modules were moved under ee-galleon-pack.

For Jakarta EE TCK testing we build WildFly and then change into the dist/target folder and then archive the build via shell commands that look like:

cd dist/target

rm -f *.zip *.jar *.gz wildfly-galleon-*.txt
zip -r wildfly.zip wildfly*

The reason for the file removal is to ensure the zip operation does not see other files named "wildfly.*something".

Internal to the WF build any other modules that look for those locations should be relying on a maven property, so in theory it could be easy to tweak that property. But there might be a problem with other automation external to the build (e.g. github actions) that make assumptions about the location of those modules.

We typically just change our TCK testing script to adjust to whatever changes are made to how we build WildFly.  I'm only mentioning these TCK details in case it helps with this discussion.  I don't expect that the WildFly build needs to worry about how TCK testing builds WildFly.

I'm asking this as part of some brainstorming about how to organize the code base to better reflect the different variants of WF we produce. Currently the build and dist for WFP are located under the same dir 'preview' as the bits that produce the WFP feature pack and channel. Unlike the various modules that produce java artifacts (e.g. subsystems), the dist modules are tightly bound to the FP that produces them, so grouping them makes some sense.

NBD; I'm just brainstorming.
