[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (RF-12500) Use OpenDDR/Apache DeviceMap instead of MobileESP

[Stefano Andreani (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12500?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12721337#comment-12721337 ] 

Stefano Andreani commented on RF-12500:
---------------------------------------

MobileESP cannot replace a Device Description Repository (DDR) like DeviceMap, it has a different (more narrow) scope. A good DDR provides more accurate identification and additional properties of the identified device. This comes, of course, together with additional complexity. This is also declared in MobileESP blog site:

http://blog.mobileesp.com/?page_id=20
"Important Caveat: The MobileESP project code is lightweight and ideal for many web sites. However, this project is not meant to replace other projects offering greater depth and control" [like DDRs]
