[jira] [Updated] (ARIES-2177) Remove Application module from the main repository

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-2177?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Dominik Przybysz updated ARIES-2177:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
Remove the Application module from the monorepo for the following reasons:

# There is an official OSGi specification for the concept of Application (in https://docs.osgi.org/specification/osgi.cmpn/7.0.0/service.application.html). Our current Application module does not adhere to this specification, which may lead to confusion for developers expecting standards-compliant behavior.
# The module has a dependency on Eclipse Equinox packages that were removed a long time ago, making it not-upgradeable and problematic to maintain. More details can be found in the issue tracker: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=345790 .
# The submodules within Application were last released in 2012, which strongly suggests they are no longer actively used or maintained - https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.aries.application?sort=newest .

Other modules are affected and should stop using application artifacts before:
- samples
- subsystem
- util

When application module is removed then eba-maven-plugin should be removed
