mvn modules name coherence
Hi all guys,
in our SVN, mvn modules *dir* name are a little inconsistent:
<modules>
<module>any23-core</module>
<module>plugins/basic-crawler</module>
<module>plugins/html-scraper</module>
<module>plugins/office-scraper</module>
<module>plugins/integration-test</module>
<module>any23-service</module>
</modules>
I suggest to strip the `any23-` prefix - what else should be? :)
OTOH, all artifact IDs should prefix `apache-any23`...
WDYT?
Many thanks in advance, all the best!

yes of course, indeed artifact IDs on POMs have to keep the any23-*
prefix for the most than valid reason you just explained, OTOH the
source directories on SVN don't need this prefix IMHO

I had a chat on Michele time ago about why they didn't chose OSGi as
"plugin engine" but honestly I didn't get well the reason - I am not
an OSGi expert (but I'd like to be)

I would be interested on keeping them where they are, I think we can
develop a plugins community as well as the Apache Maven community
does, so people don't have to focus just on the core functionalities
but contribute back also with aux/accessories tools.
In that way the community has more chances to grow faster - and we can
get graduated sooner :P

yes indeed we need a more coherence here, ALL artifacts must have the
required prefix otherwise is a little confusing also for us :P
Thanks for your feedbacks, have a nice day!

Hi Simone,
I'm thinking more about when we push them to the Apache repository...
Having an any23-core, any-23-service, etc etc would be clean for pulling
this and adding it into your POM or Ivy file.
Although the current plugins are exactly that, plugins, it might be great
for people wishing to use them in an OSGi environment if we could make them
something like any23-basic-crawler, any23-office-scraper, etc. I also think
that it might not be a bad thing to push out all of these to Apache repos.
I must admit though, these names are a wee bit messy.

+1 to stripping the any23 prefix...
Cheers,
