[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (RF-12883) Make the distribution layout more clear

[Lukáš Fryč (JIRA)]

Lukáš Fryč created RF-12883:
-------------------------------

             Summary: Make the distribution layout more clear
                 Key: RF-12883
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12883
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Feature Request
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: build/distribution
            Reporter: Lukáš Fryč


Currently, JAR artifacts are distributed in ZIP distribution as follows:

{code}
/artifacts
   /archetypes
   /framework
       richfaces.jar
       richfaces-sources.jar
   /lib
       {library}.jar
/examples
{code}

I propose to change this layout for several reasons:

* layout should be understandable to newcomers
** word {{artifact}} is rather familiar to Maven users
** word {{framework}} doesn't have to be taken well
* I assume others projects more or less follow one of following "conventions"

----

This layout counts with {{richfaces.jar}} in top-level directory:

{code}
/archetypes
/examples
/lib
    {library}.jar
richfaces.jar
{code}

or the one which has {{/bin}} directory with {{richfaces.jar}}:

{code}
/archetypes
/examples
/lib
    {library}.jar
/bin
    richfaces.jar
    richfaces-sources.jar
{code}
