[wildfly-dev] Remove PL from WFLY

[Pedro Igor Silva]

Hi,

    On the last few days I've been discussing with Tomaz about the possibility to remove PL from WFLY.

    The reasons for that are:

        - PicketLink was deprecated in favor of Keycloak. See [1] and [2].
        - Fixes are only being done to product version by GSS/SEG teams.
        - Most PL IdM and Federation capabilities such as SAML (plus a plenty of other things) are now available from Keycloak.

    I think we can still provide an installer (we already have that) that could be used to enable PL to a WFLY installation. That would help people using PL to continue with their designs. But for PL Federation and Subsystem, Keycloak should be the best way to go.

    Any comments ?

Regards.
Pedro Igor
