Hi all,
Currently Wonder is all-in-one repository, with nested projects and build scripts that make building easy with Ant or Maven. How can we keep building the Wonder easy, but also make it more flexible? Should we break up the monolithic repository into sub-repos such as Core, PlugIns, UI, etc?
The Xyrality team presented on several modern build/testing/deployment technologies at WOWODC (Gradle,Vagrant, Puppet, etc) this year and Pascal (among others) has presented on similar topics in almost all the prior years. There are ongoing discussions on the list on modern dependency management and also how to best move Wonder to Java 8. WOLips is building successfully for Eclipse 4.4.2. We have forward momentum!
Now is the time to take a look at how we can, or if need to, modernize the wonder repository structure to truly take advantage of these modern techniques. Why are we doing things the way we are? Are those reasons still applicable?
