----------------------------------------
Thanks Jacques,
I will apply the reduced version of [^OFBIZ-10866_Use-the-application-and-distribution-plugin.patch] and close this ticket next monday since it seems that there is a consensus on that part.
I give up on proposing to change the documentation to recommend using the {{run}} task over the{{ofbiz}} rule-based tasks. Regarding renaming the {{gradle}} wrapper {{ofbiz}}, feel free to open a discussion on the ML if you want to propose it to the community.

> Gradle provides some useful standard plugins for packaging applications via the ‘distribution’ and ‘application’ plugins.
> * The ‘distribution’ plugin [1] is providing a straightforward and easy way to distribute OFBiz with its dependencies which is convenient in a deployment context. This is achieved by the new ‘distTar’ and ‘distZip’ tasks.
> * The ‘application’ plugin [2] is complementing the ‘distribution’ plugin by adding both a robust shell script and a batch script inside the distribution archives to allow launching OFBiz easily.
