[ecf-dev] release of non-EF features
|
Hi Folks,
Via the ECF discussion forum, we recently had a request for someone to
use/consume the JMS ActiveMQ provider [1]. Currently, we password
protect our build server...because of the need to prevent access to the
OSGi TCK contents. We have an agreement with EF and OSGi consortium
that we will only allow those that have signed an agreement to access
the TCK. Without this agreement we wouldn't be able to get/use/test
against the OSGI TCK.
In any event, I would like to pose the following question: for those
that want to consume binaries/repos of the features hosted at github
[2]...i.e. the ActiveMQ provider, but also the JavaGroups provider, the
Restlet provider...and lots of others...how should we release built
versions of these features? We cannot distribute these as part of
EF-hosted releases (like our 3.6.1 release, or our upcoming 3.7.0
release)...but it would be convenient for consumers to be able to get
release versions of these features (like the person/people on [1])...as
there is lots of value in these ECF components (and this is growing all
the time...e.g. Zookeeper server, etc).
Although it's possible that some of these could move into EF-hosted
components...I don't think this works for everything...i.e. there will
always be some things that won't be distributable by EF...because of
licensing, etc.
Ideas about how to provide access to built versions of these github
features?
Thanks,
Scott
