Re: maven repository
Hi Mark,
I'd like to upload all taglibs to the repository, but I have some
questions:

1.Is /www/www.apache.org/dist/java-repository/ still the right directory
that is synced to ibiblio? If so, where the taglibs from ibiblio came
from (as that directory does not have any of our artifacts)?
2.Ibiblio already have groups for jstl and taglibs, but they have just a
few jars. So, we have 2 options:
a.maintain that structure
b.put everything on jakarta-taglibs, removing these old files from
ibiblio
I opt for option b - the only problem is that if remove jstl and taglibs
from ibiblio, it might break other projects that depends on them (I
would still prefer that option, as those groups are crippled).

Ideally, we should 'mavenize' the whole project. But for now, we can
just generate/upload the MD5 files manually.

I read in some ASF list that we should not be providing SNAPSHOTs, only
official releases.
Once you confirm my questions, I can write some shell scripts to
populate our repository.

Felipe

Could you please take a quick look on that directory? I will also ask on
the maven-dev list...

Ok, I will leave it there (although I don't like redundant stuff)

I thought a SNAPSHOT always pointed to the latest unofficial release (in
fact, Maven lacks the concept of CURRENT, which would be a link to the
last official release).
Anyway, we can pass on the SNAPSHOT concept, as the taglibs are not
released that often.

Hopefully you can still check that repo this week :-)
Thanks again for helping it out,

Yes, but, you should do all your work to setup the directory structure in a
staging area like your home directory before placing anything into these
directories. Have someone else whose done the process review everything prior
to moving it into the repository.

SNAPSHOT is different than unofficial release, SNAPSHOT referes to a link to
the most recent release. an unofficial release is one that has the date as a
version number, thus there can be SNAPSHOTS that point to official releases in
the repository.
