[jira] [Commented] (MNG-5937) Maven-Wrapper for unified project environments (analog the Gradle wrapper)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5937?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16771456#comment-16771456 ] 

Adrian Cole commented on MNG-5937:
----------------------------------

I would consider the maven wrapper a backdoor required feature. I like it, but it is troubling that the team is not able to donate this to the ASF, and even are going so far as to suggest every ASF project needs to advertise it in their NOTICE file. We don't have this behavior even from gradle.. maybe they would like to have projects add GradleWare to the NOTICE file, too? Maybe they will one day!

Anyway, maven should be fully functional, and I'd argue that at this point wrapper is a part of it being functional. I think the community should be at least permitted to write their own version of the wrapper if the takari folks are unwilling.

> It would be nice to provide a wrapper for maven which behaves similarily to the wrapper Gradle has. This would allow projects to share Maven in a certain version along with some project-specific Maven options like for example the location of the user or the global settings files or the maximum java heap size to use.
> There already are projects on github (e.g.: https://github.com/takari/maven-wrapper) providing said feature, however it would be nice to have it developed and maintained by the very people providing us with the offical Maven release.
> Cheers, Robert
