Hi ho folks!
We were preparing for a massive rename from our old jspwiki name
space to the "org.apache.jspwiki.*" -package to prepare for our first
Apache release when we hit a major snag.
Turns out that Jasper JSP compiler has a bug in it, and it thinks all
classes with their FQN starting with "org.apache.jsp" are it's own,
instead of "org.apache.jsp." (note the trailing period). We are
tracking this issue at
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-465
Now, Jasper has this fixed in the trunk, but since it's used rather
widely in other servlet containers, it means that very few servlet
containers will be able to run JSPWiki for quite a while.
We've got some fairly hackish ways around this (which cause pain), so
the question to Incubator folks is - can we use a different package
name than "org.apache.jspwiki" for our project, or does it require a
full rename of the project itself? For example,
"org.apache.x.jspwiki" where "x" can range from being a literal "x"
to something else?
We'd hate to lose the JSPWiki brand (due to four missing characters
in an another project!) because we've existed for over seven years
and have an established name. In addition, figuring out a new name
for a project is always a real pain...
Any ideas/advice from more experienced people? Any other options
than those listed at JSPWIKI-465?
