[wildfly-dev] Re: Use of the 'org.wildfly' groupId

I'll think out loud so people can correct my thinking... This is more complicated to me than the grpc one as 'ai' is much more broadly scoped. For some context, part of the issue that led to this overall thread is creating an updated permission scheme for deploying artifacts to JBoss Nexus. That's easier to do if the same set of people can deploy everything in a given groupdId. If you have unrelated people sharing the same groupId, then you either have a potentially wrong set of people able to deploy or you need to start enumerating artifacts and giving perms based on artifact lists or artifact name patterns. Harder to maintain. So, org.wildfly.ai <http://org.wildfly.ai> is much more likely to result over the years in different sets of people deploying than, say, org.wildfly.grpc is.

That said, 'org.wildfly.ai <http://org.wildfly.ai>' is probably ok. If someone comes with something new *and* it really doesn't fit with the permission scheme, we can require them to use groupId org.wildfly.ai.foo. BUT if you can come up with your own, good, 'foo' right now, that would be nice. If you can't, go with 'org.wildfly.ai <http://org.wildfly.ai>';. To me 'org.wildfly.feature-pack' doesn't seem like a good category. I can easily see a given repo producing artifacts that are only semi-related to 'feature-pack'. For example a maven module producing a WildFly Extension impl is only semi-related to 'feature-pack'. Extensions artifacts are usable in any feature pack, and we've been using extension artifacts for many years before Stuart Douglas introduced the original feature pack concept. Artifacts like that, or other things like backing libraries, may some day end up in a code base completely separate from the Galleon-related stuff.

I think a breaking change can be expected in a 0.x release.
