Hi Dave,
I totally understand and appreciate your situation with work and other
priorities. I am however interested in contributing to the project and would
be keen to look into what you have suggested as this would be a welcome
addition to the plugin to allow the administration of a glassfish server
without the reliance on the asadmin CLI.
Is your thoughts to have the plugin using the REST API aswell as the asadmin
utility so the new version would be compatible with both v2 and v3 or do you
think it would be worth while making a 2.2 release addressing some
outstanding issues that will use the asadmin CLI for v2 and v3 and
concentrate on purely the REST API for Glassfish v3 on version 3.0 for
the plugin as the demand for glassfish v2 will surely decline?
Thanks,
Craig
