Should keystore gbean be moved to security from console?

[David Jencks <da...@yahoo.com>]

I just committed GERONIMO-887 which includes a keystore management 
gbean in the console application.  I would think this would be of more 
general use and the code should be in the security module and the gbean 
deployed in the security configuration.

Comments?

thanks

I think that depends upon how much you want to move into the security 
module?  If it is just the GBean, then I think that's probably a good 
move.  However, I suspect that the management portlet itself would have 
to remain in the console application until we get a more dynamic portal 
server that is included in G rather than just the console application 
itself.

Ideally, I think it would be great if we could include all of the 
management capabilities (including the portlets) with the specific 
component they manage such that the management capability is available 
only if the component itself is included in the configuration.
