h1. Z2-Environment version 3.0 Version 3.0 is in progress The main goals for 3.0 is to provide features that simplify user adoption. 3.0: h2 File System Based Operations In order to reduce the initial usage barrier, the following should be possible (or simplified) * Have a system layout consisting of a number of auto-discovered co-located file system repositories ** Much like the dev repo but actually based on the FSCR and "always armed" ** Benefit: Supports Git-branching approaches out of the box ** Benefit: Allows System Releases as a single ZIP to be exploded without any online access (a regular "copy" deployment) * Provide consistent and complete system export ** Support binary or source-preserving export ** Provide clean component name escaping so we can also export mvn-provided artifacts if desired ** so we can offer a complete base distribution as binary download ** Running samples means to clone co-located Git Repos h2. Free Web Container Choice It should be possible to use a Web Container of choice, as long as it is Jetty or Tomcat. Our tests indicate that it should be simple to programmatically control * Seamless support of Maven repositories (see [[V23]], [[maven_repo_support]]) * Introduce "Java Templates", Java (and others) Component configuration made simpler (see [[smart_props]]) * Port add-ons and samples to maven repos for external artifacts
