[vote] New Maven Repository
Hi,
We have been chatting a little bit about Maven in IRC but I would just
like to take the plunge and put the code in a jakarta-turbine-maven
repository.
The definition of Maven is someone (in this case something) that is an
expert, so in short Maven attempts to be a Java project expert. The
whole basis of Maven is an accurate object model for a project. So once
this model is worked out completely, and a good deal of it is, then all
sorts of interesting things can fall out: build tools, metrics,
continuous integration, documentation tools and the list goes on and on.
I have talk to several people of the last while and so far I've got code
donations from Tom Copeland who works on the importscrubber utility
(importscrubber.sourceforge.net) and Juancarlo Añez who wrote JRCS and a
diff utility written in Java (http://www.suigeneris.org/software/). I
have also talked with Tim Endres who has changed the license on his Java
based cvs client library from GPL to LGPL so it can be used in Maven. I
asked him if he wanted to donate the code to Apache but haven't heard
back from him.
Other people that I have talked to: Reto Kramer (who I meant at the
AspectJ workshop) who is the author of iDoc, iContract, and iDarwin. I
would like to integrate those tools into Maven but I couldn't find the
source. iDoc and iDarwin are the most interesting to me, you can find
out about them here: http://www.reliable-systems.com. I've also sent a
message to David Peugh the author of Quilt which is a code coverage tool
that uses the commons-graph package which I nudged Markus Dahm into
donating (the BCEL guy). I would also like to chat with the Cruise
Control guys but haven't done so yet.
What I would like to do is use all the Turbine projects as a testbed
before making any plans for Maven but the ultimate goal is to replace
the Alexandria project which is defunct. I think if we can work out all
the issues amongst our little family of projects then we will be well
suited to deal with the rest of the world :-)
I would like to take Pete up on his offer to document Maven so I would
like to get the code into a repository so the documentation, testing
and collaboration can start. I've been thinking about Maven a lot but
there isn't a whole lot of code yet but I think the approach of starting
with the object model is sound.
So I would like to make a jakarta-turbine-maven repository and stick the
code I have in their today.

-- james, who likes the idea of jason cleaning up all that cool code so
he can use it for other things.

This is a great approach, I think, eating one's one dogfood, as the cliché
goes...
