[maven] What about the hosting of RELEASE82 artifacts?

[Jean-Marc Borer <jm...@gmail.com>]

Hi there,

When you want to create plugins compatible to older NB based applications
such as VisualVM 1.4.x with Maven, you have dependencies to older Maven
artifacts such as RELEASE82. Sure it may evolve in the future, but
currently the latest version of VisualVM is still bound to NB 8.2.

NB 8.2 belongs to Oracle and the artifacts are still hosted at
bits.netbeans.org and can't be hosted at Apache. As I understood, this repo
is going to be shut down eventually (soon?).

Now the question that remains is: will those older artifacts be hosted on
the long term and where?

Cheers,

JMB

Hi,
 On Apache side nothing can be done. Maybe Oracle can upload them on central (maybe they need to sign artefacts). We cannot use Apache infra to do that.
org.netbeans  groupid is "owned" by Apache for Release90 and upwards. Maybe an agreement can be found with sonatype (manager of maven central) to allow this upload in the groupid.
We put a "disclamer" https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/netbeans/README.

Best Regards
Eric
