This category functions as a traditional "developers mailing list" for discussing the development of the Liferay core. To limit traffic, only Liferay core developers can post new threads to this category. Anyone can read or reply to an existing thread. Subcategories are available to propose and discuss about some specific topics such as accessibility, translations and contributions.

Hey guys,<br /><br />You might be interested in knowing that portal-kernel and portal-service have been merged in r51543 a few days ago (April 30th). The new module (and JAR) will be called portal-service.<br /><br />This was done for a variety of reasons. On one side it simplifies the set up of development environments (both through ant and with IDEs). On the other side it resolves some circular dependency issues that we had found between the two modules. Merging the two doesn&#039;t have any negative effect that we can think of.<br /><br />You can find the details in the associated JIRA ticket: <a href="http&#x3a;&#x2f;&#x2f;issues&#x2e;liferay&#x2e;com&#x2f;browse&#x2f;LPS-9370">http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-9370</a>

Hey guys,<br /><br />We have restored the permissions of this category that had been removed with the migration to the permission algorithm 6 of liferay.com. Unfortunately due to the lack of this permissions this category had been abused for topics not related to core development which made the category not so useful anymore to discuss core development.<br /><br />This is how it should be working now:<br /><ol style="list-style: decimal inside;"><li>Only the most active core developers and contributors will be allowed to create new threads</li><li>Everybody else will be able to participate in the thread</li><li>Some subcategories will have a more relaxed permissioning. Accessibility, Beta Testing, Contributions, Liferay IDE, PortletFaces and Translations will allow posts by anyone (unless they are abused)</li></ol><br /><br />If you find that it doesn&#039;t work like that for any of you please let me know answering to this thread. Also, if you think that you are an active community member and would like to have permission to post new threads related to core development let us know and we&#039;ll consider your petition.
