My vision is that in the future we will have more Flavors supported, not
just the KB one.
I'm sure we would want to have at least one more flavor for Development,
for example.
So what will be the strategy? will we provide packaging for all the
"support" Flavors? The argument would be the same, having the jetty package
will be easier to use and test on it.
Thanks,
Caty

 Hi dev,
 The title say it all.
 The whole point of Knowledge Base flavor move is to stop maintaining a
 set of install packages and only provide the flavor. 
 For me there’s a difference between the flavor and the packaging we 
  propose. The
goal of the flavor is not stop maintaining packagings but to
 offer various content
 It's possible you are mixing stuff here. I'm not talking about stop
 providing any jetty/hsqldb package, you would have the XWiki one on
 which you are asked which flavor you want. I'm only talking about a
 special Knowledge Base one.
  Now it could be a pain for testers to have to
install the flavor every
 time so we might still release a jetty/hsqldb package but not list it
 on 
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download for example.
 WDYT ? 
 This packaging is one of the most widely used because it’s one of the 
  simplest to
get started with XWiki.

 So I think we should definitely keep it.
