[rules-dev] New Guvnor Web GUI (Role : business end user, developer)

[Michael Anstis]

1) Why have we completely change the Web GUI and disregard the role of
"Business" End user" loving Guvnor 5.5 in favor of something which is a
kind of interface for "Developer" ?

It is already accepted that the Project Explorer in 6.0 is a poor
substitute for the Asset Viewer in 5.5. A new "Navigator" for 6.0.Final is
on the table.

2) Why have we removed a lot of the features/functionality's proposed by
Guvnor 5.5 in Guvnor 6.x (import POJO ....) ?

Guvnor 6.0 follows the changes made to Drools Expert 6.0. The previous
concept of what constituted a "package" has changed completely.

This had led to a change in how POJO models need to be uploaded: previously
they just had to be on the classpath at build-/run-time; now they need to
be declared as a project dependency and uploaded to a repository.

There is a whole new API for 6.0 for developers using Drools Expert 6.0 too.

With kind regards,

Mike
