No, it smells like the current goal of moving things we don't want in
the main project to external projects. This type of decision-making has
been going on for years.

I agree with Ruth. This sounds like a user requirement. And the community
should decide on this.
Furthermore, the remark 'users might like a new feature, but that doesn't
mean the dev community wants it in the project' smells like measuring with
double standards; as if the meritocratic principle doesn't apply when the
committers don't want it in. Or as if changes always get in, when only the
committers want it.

Ruth,
I understand your viewpoint. Personally, I prefer to present my ideas to
the dev list to see if it is something the dev community wants included in
the project. Users might like a new feature, but that doesn't mean the dev
community wants it in the project. If there was no interest from the dev
community, then I would offer it as an add-on product and announce it on
the user list.
I am also a user, and the design was based on the requirement to monitor
and control server performance. I suppose I could go to the user list for
more ideas, but the code I'm planning to commit is pretty basic, and users
will be free to enhance it in whatever way they please.

Hi Adrian:
Shouldn't this be discussed on the "user" list? IMHO Words like
"applications" and "stats about services and entities"...those are all
indicative of user requirements, not developer requirements.
Users should be driving requirements gathering and analysis for OFBiz and
not developers.
Just my 2 cents.

Ruth
