Geronimo Maven Repo
Is there interest in setting up a Geronimo Maven repo (to avoid load
and outages affecting the other Maven sites)? Is there someone who
would take charge of maintaining it (that is, making sure release we
need from Codehaus, ibiblio, etc. are copied to the Geronimo repo, and
perhaps creating nightly download packages to grab everything in one
shot)?
There are cheap (< $20/month) hosting plans that allow e.g. 250-1500
GB transfer per month. I'm not sure how the performance is, and I'm
not sure how much transfer we'd actually use, but it might be worth a
try. I'll cover the cost if someone else will actually run it.
Thanks,
Aaron

Does anyone have an account on our zone? If so, can we connect your
scripts with that person and get this going? We can always move it
later if it seems appropriate.
Thanks,
Aaron

Aaron,
Do you mean setting up a site than manages syncing all our content to one place?
I have an internal mirror at IBM that does exactly that. I'm happy to provide the scripts for that.
Also, I spent some time on the asfinfra channel and the problems we've been having as of late seem
to be a more general networking problem. They are looking into it but they have seen problems other
than our timeouts.
I'd prefer to keep the resources at Apache where possible since the org will probably outlive us and
that way we are not managing lots of external resources. I'd be interested to hear what the options
are though.

Is this going to be okay from the infra's group perspective?
I think it is important that we have a g-repo and to try and use it as the single master where possible/practicle.
I also still think that the content should be backed up by svn.

Can't we just put it in our Apache Zone?

Works for me. Any volunteers to manage it?

Do we have a machine with enough disk space available?
If so, I'll volunteer if it's a recent Linux distro and you can give me
SSH access to it....

The cpu and network bandwidth are usually plenty for static content
with these plans (I have one and love it), where they get you is
limited disk space. It's usually like 4-8 gigs. I guess if geronimo
is careful, it might be enough.

I believe this is key for maven to be successful and reliable for geronimo builds.
