[jira] [Resolved] (RAT-219) RAT project uses groupId: org.apache.rat instead of org.apache.creadur.rat

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-219?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jochen Wiedmann resolved RAT-219.
---------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix
      Assignee: Jochen Wiedmann

As far as I am concerned, not changing the groupId has been an intentional, although informal decision, when Rat went TLP, in order to avoid compatibility issues.

OTOH, Rat is basically a build time tool. I am unaware of any users, that use it at runtime. In fact, nowadays, I am even unaware of any users of the Ant tasks, or the CLI. So, I wouldn't block any change, if you'd do it in Git. Nevertheless, I am resolving this issue, so that it is out of scope.

I find it very important to document things via JIRA for at least two 
reasons.

First a users which takes a look can see what we have in 
mind/ideas/improvements/bugs otherwise where should it be documentented 
and second a potential contributor can take a look into the list of 
issues and decide to work on some of them...

Furthermore you can use the JIRA as a good based for release notes to 
create them automatically...

Just my thoughts about that...

Kind regards

As I wrote: You are committers, feel free to go on. I won't object.
(No guarantees, that others feel different.) OTOH, I don't see any
problem for users here, so I don't see any need for a Jira issue.

Hi Jochen,

first if it is an informal decision why not making a formal decision of 
it...to make a clear line where RAT belongs to?

And why just setting it to Won't Fix to get it out of scope? We can 
create a milestone 1.0.0 to assign it to it and may be we should change 
it earlier...

Why not changing that...RAT has not reached 1.0.0 ? So it can be 
changed...That's the reason why I have added the information to do that 
before 1.0.0 ...

Kind regards
Karl Heinz Marbaise
