Thanks for catching up on this.

Do you mean "does", instead of "doesn't"?
WildFly currently doesn't include a version of OGM but I would like to
change that.

The sooner that we have a WildFly topic branch with OGM integrated, the
better. I've been pushing on native OGM client integration via a
WildFly topic branch [1] and would like to do something similar for OGM
integration (either via [1] or a new WildFly topic branch).
By the way, it is really the WildFly JPA container, rather than jipijapa
that defaults the module name (including slot), based on the persistence
provider class name mentioned in the persistence.xml.
I think that some pending questions for OGM on WildFly, are:
1. Do we need a subsystem to manage deployment of OGM applications? Or
can we rely on the JPA container deployment in WildFly to deploy OGM
applications? By default, I don't think we need a separate OGM
subsystem, but I might not yet understand all of the requirements.
2. Will the (WildFly) existing Hibernate ORM jars be used by the WildFly
OGM module or will OGM have its own copy of the ORM jars?
3. Will the OGM module dependencies be the same as ORM [2]?
4. Does the OGM module still need to export certain classloaders to
applications? From earlier conversations, I think that we talked about
the exported dependencies varying based on which OGM backend is
targeted. I'm not sure how we can handle that yet.
5. Pending from earlier discussions, we would like to have a jipijapa
module that is specific for OGM. Perhaps jipijapa could be extended to
help with classloader magic (4).

I'd like to start planning how everything needed, will/when align
together. Soon, we should at least get some feedback on the WildFly dev
ml, on OGM in WildFly (I plan to post soon) and hope that we can have
some overlapping discussion there as needed (about NoSQL integration).
Thanks,
Scott

start a nosql-dev9 branch when I squash commits next time). Let me know
if you there is interest in reviewing this branch and I'll squash right
away (easier to review squashed commits imo).
