Project rename proposal #5
Description
This is a proposal to rename the project from java-simple-serial-connector to something else. There are natural downstream effects to this:
- Dependency name will change (e.g. Maven) affecting projects
- Namespace changes (unavoidable -- we don't own scream3r.org and the classes aren't properly namespaced anyway)
Upsides:
- Easier to find in a search engine
- Shorter

Dependency name does not need to change. Maven can set them independently from github URLs.
That said, I'd still like to change the maven group:artifact to
com.github.java-native:<new-project-name>.What we shouldn't use:
see https://github.com/thibautd/JSerial
see https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index-jsp-141752.html
see https://github.com/openmuc/jrxtx
Last project seems to be pretty advanced btw.

If there's a way to offer a hint to the old project that would be nice.
If you're suggesting we keep the old maven name with a potentially new project name, I think that'll be confusing.
Ok.
We can just keep
jsscif everyone wants, or if we want something more unique we can do a few proposals.bmarwell commentedon Apr 8, 2019
I re-read the requirements from sonar, and they suggest to use
io.githubas a prefix.Also, I'd like to propose:
… because we might have other artefacts in the same namespace. E.g.
artifactId=jssc-parentetc.tresf commentedon Apr 9, 2019
jsscis probably the easiest and least confusing name. Shall I proceed?bmarwell commentedon Apr 9, 2019
Sure. While you're at it, change the project's
groupIdtoio.github.java-native.jssc.Rationale: As this project might have multiple jars or poms some day, they should have a common
groupId.That is:
At the moment it seems duplicated, but as said, in the future we might have multiple artefacts (like
jssc-parentwhere all the profiles and version information is,jssc-nativeto separate the shared objects,jssc-apito separate API and Implementation some day, etc.).tresf commentedon Apr 9, 2019
Done, but did I mess it up? 176f727#diff-865913557c5623f45eed23c4458032e7R21
The maven build now says:
Should that be reverted?
