> In the Eclipse Platform we have shipped the Ant bundle (named
> org.apache.ant) for years. When the bundle was released to Orbit we
> changed it to be called org.apache.tools.ant to conform to the Orbit
> standard of using the dominate package name as the bundle
> name. The plan
> was to then (in the Platform) create an org.apache.ant bundle which
> required and re-exported the new org.apache.tools.ant bundle.
>
> Although this works well in most Eclipse use-cases, we are
> finding that a
> lot of people have scripts which reference the specific Ant jars. This
> includes people who are contributing Ant tasks as part of
> their bundle,
> etc. We can't break everyone and ask them all to change their scripts.
>
> We are proposing the following:
> - grandfather the org.apache.ant name into Orbit
> - rename the org.apache.tools.ant bundle in Orbit to org.apache.ant
> - let the Platform consume the org.apache.ant bundle from Orbit
>
> Are there any comments/objections?
