Released packages confusions (name, artifacts)

• Key: JAMES-582
• Type: Wish
• Status: Closed
• Resolution: Fixed
• Priority: Minor
• Assignee: Stefano Bagnara
• Reporter: Stefano Bagnara
• Component/s: Build System
• Affects Version/s: 2.3.0
• Fix Version/s: 2.3.0

Description

We currently name "james-*" our releases.
1) We should rename them to add at least "server" => james-server-*
2) Currenlty james-XXX-src.* and james-with-phoenix-XXX-src.* are the same thing: why do we need 2? what would be the intended difference? I would like to remove the james-with-phoenix-XXX-src from our release.

Comments

Furthermore Norman noted that in our rc1 src distro there are javadocs in the www folder.

I think this is a lack in our build system: I see that some of our src releases include the www folder with some parts of the website, other releases don't include this one.

Should we try to fix this for 2.3.0? What would we like to include and in what packages?

[Noel J. Bergman]

1) The binary release has docs/
2) The Mailet SDK release has docs/javadocs/

That seems OK.

3) james-XXX-src does not include Phoenix, and james-with-phoenix-XXX-src does.

4) I would not want to rename the packages to james-server right now unless everyone feels that it is necesssary. We can change the build script after v2.3.

[Noel J. Bergman]

Move this minor issue to v2.4.

[Stefano Bagnara]

Marking this as resolved for 2.3.0.
I'll open a new issue for the "server" naming part.

[Danny Angus]

Closing issue fixed in released version.
