Hi
We need jetty for scout. Can we still use and redistribute the necessary plugins from the jetty updatesite for kepler or how should we proceed here?

Regards,
Judith

Subject: [cross-project-issues-dev] jetty dropping release train

unless things change in the next few months, jetty would like to be dropped from the release train for kepler, effective immediately.

having discussed this with the principal folks that we are aware of that use jetty on the platform, we don't anticipate this being a particularly big deal for kepler.  the 'unless things change' comment means we would re-evaluate this decision is there was some sort of 'omg, we all gunna die w/o you' outpouring of support wanting jetty on the release train.

we'll continue to release updates to the jetty-8 p2 repository for the time being and we'll see if it is important to update the jetty version in juno for SR1 or not at that time...the version in juno is solid so perhaps an update for SR1 will not be required/desired.
anyway, jetty development is focused on jetty-9 for the time being

if anyone has questions on the reasoning behind our decision I would be happy to share, it just doesn't seem relavent for this announcement
:)

cheers,
jesse
