RE: [technology-pmc] Project Proposal: Faceted Project Framework

As you say yourself, it's a chicken and an egg problem. A project that does not already have a natural dependency on functional area covered by WTP will not seriously consider this framework while it is part of WTP. The goal for making it independent is precisely to facilitate broader adoption.

This discussion will be more relevant when we are starting to formulate an exit strategy for this project from Technology. Where it finds its permanent home will be driven by the precise nature of its adoption.

Note that one of the more frequent questions / requests that I get is how to add facets to a Java project. This is not a WTP use case.

  I am also concerned that faceted project is currently only used by WTP
and no other projects expressed interests in using it (or at least it is
not shown in the proposal). I suppose that because framework is part of
WTP now may slow down its adoption by other projects not based on WTP.
It would be great to see some community interest around this framework
before separating it out from WTP.

  regards,
  Eugene
