Re: Providing maven-metadata.xml files for Batik
1) not necessary, metadata is only required for version ranges
2) not minimum jdk for maven, whatever the Batik project already does
3) relocation is not required, although I would put a relocation pom
for the next version so users upgrading get a warning and dont
complain about "latest version is not in the repo"

put it in the repo and let me know to copy to central. I will delete
it later after it's synced.

OK thanks, and well timed, since Batik has its release today. :)
I’ve uploaded the artifacts to
/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository/org/apache/xmlgraphics now. For the
relcation POM, should I put that in the Apache repository, or send a
JIRA request for someone to do this in repo1.maven.org?
Thanks,
Cameron
