Hi,
I think the main Proximity developer is here, and I was wondering if
you would like to work with us on Maven Enterprise (ME)? Essentially
this means us putting a small wrapper around Proximity and firing it
up from the ME server? I'm not sure what the licensing is on
Proximity but if it's a license compatible with the ASF then we could
package up Proximity with ME which I think would be very cool. I've
heard good things about Proximity, and only tried it out for a week
but I think you guys have done the leg work and have something that
works well and we should support you instead of our meagre efforts in
this area. You have made something that works and people like and I
think it would be wise to incorporate it into ME if you're
interested. We should be encouraging people making good Maven-based
applications and I think Proximity is a perfect example.
This doesn't mean moving your project anywhere, really just
redistributing a binary of Proximity with some integration pieces. I
am using an extended version of ME for a client which wraps a Spring
application so I don't think wrapping Proximity would be any
different. I honestly have a couple clients who want proxy support
and they have already started looking at Proximity because maven-
proxy is not supported and Archiva didn't really work. I also have
some training in the near future and at ApacheCon and I'm going to be
using ME or an open variant of it and so I would like to include
Proximity because that's what I would like to promote in the
training. I can go ahead and just make a bundle that includes
Proximity for training but some official collaboration would be
preferable and I think that's ultimately more beneficial to Maven
users who want enterprise grade proxy support.
Any of the Proximity developers care to comment?
Thanks,
Jason.
