Right, "product" is the right term. I used "distribution" as a

of "product" (like a Linux distro) not with the "packaging/installer"
sense that's used in the actual XE modules.
So, +1 for xwiki-product-archetype.
Except that all modules in enterprise start with xwiki-enterprise so that would be
xwiki-enterprise-product-archetype and I believe it's overkill since there's only
1 archetype ATM.
If everyone thinks that xwiki-enterprise-product-archetype is better than
xwiki-enterprise-archetype, I'll change it.
Thanks

No, I mean more generic. xwiki-enterprise is too specific, it means
exactly the XWiki Enterprise product.

you mean less generic, not more :) Hi devs,
I'd like to add an archetype module in xwiki-enterprise so that users can easily
extend XE to create their own distributions.
It'll generate a multimodule project with *-web, *-ui, *-data and *-distribution
modules (and possibly installers in a second version).
I remember some users asking for this (e.g. Fabio) and I have the need myself now.
WDYT?
+1, but the name should be more generic, like
xwiki-distribution-archetype, because that's what it builds, custom
distributions built on top of XWiki, not enterprises for XWiki.
I chose voluntarily to not have xwiki-enterprise-distribution-archetype because it
doesn't build distributions. It generates all modules to build a product based on XE.
