DO NOT REPLY [Bug 50380] New: Make binary and source distributions available in Maven Central repository

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50380

           Summary: Make binary and source distributions available in
                    Maven Central repository
           Product: Tomcat 6
           Version: 6.0.29
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Native:Packaging
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: 1983-01-06@gmx.net


I use Ant to customize a vanilla Tomcat distribution to our needs. During this
process Ant downloads files from our local Nexus (only Nexus has outbound
connection). At ths moment I have to download Tomcat manually, place on the
target server and run the Ant script.
It'd be much better if all of these files
http://tomcat.apache.org/download-60.cgi would be available with appropriate
classifiers in Maven Central. I could Ant download Tomcat and customize it. It
would the useless manual step.

The Maven goes do provide both distros in Central. Their classifier/release
scheme could be taken as an example. More over, this could be automated in the
build.xml file to upload artifacts to Apache's Nexus repo which is
automatically synched to Maven Central. 

Look here for the example:
https://repository.apache.org/index.html#nexus-search;gav~org.apache.maven~apache-maven~3.0.1~~
Everything is provided, bin and src as zip and tar.gz.

> artifact ID of "tomact"

That was meant to be "tomcat", obviously.

The primary distribution channel for the Apache Tomcat project is the Apache
Mirror system, not Maven.

The Tomcat JAR files are made available via Maven.
 - Tomcat 6 includes binary JARs
 - Tomcat 7 includes binary and source JARs

There is currently relatively little interest within the Tomcat developer
community in Maven so the chances of this happening without a patch being
provided are very low. Even with a patch, there is no guarantee. A working
patch for 7.0.x that applies cleanly stands the best chance.

If producing a patch I'd suggest a group ID of "org.apache.tomcat" and an
artifact ID of "tomact"
