Hey Bruno,
Yeah, we definitely plan on externalizing this, but I'd rather not just
create a separate data format just to keep this stuff out of java (I'd
rather implement it properly via the Groovy simplified rule stuff, which
this is a prerequisite for.
My only point here is that I see little difference between putting strings
in a .CSV file and in a Java file considering we'll be exposing this in
groovy anyway :)

Thinking out loud, having the ability to externalise rules is a big
plus
imo, I recall my years writing simplybusiness.co.uk 's Quotation engine,
having rules in Java was not ideal at all.
Hence, I am still a proponent of this approach. It has many advantages,
productivity/testability are 2 of them.
my 2 cents.

I do remember this discussion, and I think that while it's one possible
solution, it's not really beneficial to have the separated out into
non-java files. In this particular scenario, I do think that writing
multiple rules is probably not what we want, but we do probably want to
keep the data in Java, in the ConfigurationProvider or a closely related
class.
Matej was just doing what he thought we asked him to do, literally port
the rules 1:1. He now understands we meant "port the functionality." :)
