Interest on Apache ACE and possible relationship with AutoDeploy/Kalumet

[Jean-Baptiste Onofré <jb...@nanthrax.net>]

Hi all,

I'm interesting to contribute to the Apache Ace project.

Reading the ACE incubation page:
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/ace

and browsed Ace Jira to pick up some task and provide some patches.

On the other hand, I'm working on AutoDeploy 
(http://buildprocess.sourceforge.net) to provide a complete JEE 
deployment tool. I submitted an Apache incubator proposal:
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/KalumetProposal

I began to upgrade the AutoDeploy trunk to use OSGi programming model 
using Felix Karaf (as I'm ServiceMix contributor, it's normal :)).

I think that we can found some relationship between Ace and AutoDeploy. 
Maybe AutoDeploy can be part or subproject of Ace ?

What do you think ?

If you have any question about AutoDeploy/WebAutoDeploy, feel free to ask.

Regards
JB

First of all, thanks for your interest in Apache Ace.

Since you've already looked at it, do you have a proposal on how  
AutoDeploy/Kalumet could be integrated with Ace? Looking at the links  
you provided, I can definitely see some high level components that are  
similar. In particular, we both have a "management agent" that locally  
deploys components.

On a related note, will you be at ApacheCon US next week? If so, it  
would be great to meet up and have a face to face meeting.

Greetings, Marcel
