Irmin Okic commented on GUACAMOLE-1325:
---------------------------------------
[~vnick] My suggestions concerning the process were just to get the ball
rolling and without knowing the actual organization of the project, including
non-existing backporting strategy.
{quote}Why? Why can't you just open a pull request that only updates code in
guacamole-common?
{quote}
Specifically for this case, because of the pom inheritance between
guacamole-client and everything underneath. Starting to update guacamole-common
dependencies and probably java version too might explode in other modules, e.g.
guacamole-ext. If the updates are only done in guacamole-common overwriting the
inherited dependencies and settings, then the parent-child relationship loses
it's purpose anyway. Again, I don't know the implementation details to 100%
claim that this would happen, it's just what I expected from looking at the
poms.
It would indeed make the most sense to:
* avoid any magic rewriting packages
* avoid additional effort of backporting
* just freeze the current feature set for Tomcat 9 and continue development
for versions that will be there in the future. From which exact version of
1.x.x to make the jump again, I can't know. :D
But this is again without knowing what your project strategy and plans are.
Also I am not sure if you have important users/projects in mind that are
waiting for new features and fixes.
