The core is uber-minimal for the folks who really want that, and then web has these things that lots and lots of folks will want. In the odd case where folks want this foundational stuff but not undertow etc, they can just depend on the web build and exclude undertow. Real corner case. And folks who don't want the foundational stuff exclude it. I can see that working out pretty well. Does logging belong in web then then? Still seems like something that even the uber-minimalists would want. I ask because it bugs me that we have two meanings now for "core" -- the old "core" notion that was the true core with zero subsystems, and now this new wildfly-core dist, which has subsystems. > > > > Fernando Nasser wrote: >> Shouldn't it be like an onion? >> >> A more bare core.
