**[Tuomas Kiviaho](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=tuomas_kiviaho)** commented Thanks in advance, I hope this clarifies the remark a bit. Zip overlays a.k.a zip dependencies as overlays could be disabled by default for backward compatibility, but enabling it isn't in my opinion ideal if there is a zipOverlays=true/false property. What about other overlays in the future (tar.gz etc. whatever ArchiveManager can handle). There is currently at least dependentWarIncludes/dependentWarExcludes configuration parameters suffering from similar tight coupling with the packaging in hand. Something like overlayTypes="The comma separated list of types to overlay in the WAR. Default is 'war'." could be generic enough and gives possibilities to tie ArchiveManager in to implementation making overlaying type agnostic.. For me choosing the most generic configuration approach in the big picture is more important than just having the patch applied, but having a working patch would be highly appreciated. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
