Hi!
Don't think that ApachEE fits good for Etch. ApachEE is focusing purely on our
Java EE core technologies stack.
Same for Syncope, though it's much closer. Would be nice to explain the
overlaps/difference between Syncope and Shiro btw ;)
Uh, quite easy, indeed: Shiro is an Access Manager [1] while Syncope is
an Identity Manager [2]
Access Management is more about authentication, Single SignOn,
Federation, ...
Identity Management is more about user provisioning, password
management, ...
These two areas can be easily confused because in almost every
application domain they are tightly connected; think, for example, that
Syncope roadmap [3] contains an integration path with Shiro.
Maybe we could have a 2nd track which supplements the ApachEE core track and showcases
the different "Enterprise Integration"
scenarios.
This sounds reasonable to me and in the direction of the aborted
"Integration & Service APIs" track [4].
Regards.
Thanks for this answer,
Pretty useful, we (at least I) hope to use both of them in OFBiz... one day...
BTW how Syncope relates to NIST http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/SNS/rbac/ ?
Jacques
Maybe that would also fit to Camel and it's parts?
In general: we have quite a few projects which sound like the same on the first
glance, but are heavily different at the end:
Syncope/Shiro
Jackrabbit/Sling
Accumulo/Cassandra
...
Would be interesting to better explain the differences? Not sure if this is an
easy to cover conference topic though, but I got
lots of questions regarding the focus of a few projects.

Hi all,
the Apache Etch (incubating) team would like to give a talk about the
project at ApacheCon EU 2012. As we are currenlty preparing our proposal we
are asking ourself which track fits the best.
Etch is a middleware framework to build and consum network services. (for
more details: http://incubator.apache.org/etch)
In my opinion, a middleware is not a classical Web Infrastructure or Cloud
topic. Maybe Apache Daily? What do you think?
What about http://www.apachecon.eu/tracks/#apache-ee
IMO this fits in the enterprise applications related category more
specifically integration and services oriented software development
