maven-plugins-sandbox

Howdy,

How about we setup maven-plugins-sandbox, as I want to move all the
half-baked plugins that I'm responsible for and get them out of primary
build and I also want to take a stab at a new 1.x xdoc plugin using the
new java xdoc code and I want to try a new deploy/install plugin using
wagon.

Don't several other plugins rely on artifact, e.g. ear, war etc? 

I'm assuming by 'move' you mean to remove them from maven-plugins cvs. 
This will break those plugins and mean that people building from HEAD will 
need to download the sandbox plugins to get comparable functionality.

Doesn't sound like a good idea to move artifact to me.

I'll check, if it is then I'll just work on the wagon-based version in
the sandbox and swap it out later.

There ya go:

http:/http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/maven-plugins-sandbox/

Perms should be setup correctly and the avail file has been modified.
Anyone with access to maven-plugins and access to maven-plugins-sandbox.

It is used by several other plugins, no? Like the war, ejb, ear plugins.

I was going to move:

artifact
castor
codeswitcher
release

Which are plugins that I'm responsible for that aren't good enough for
one reason or another.

Go for it.

One thing that really needs to be done, if not already, is filtering
what gets included with the maven 1.x distribution. So the Abbot plugin
may certainly graduate to maven-plugins but it shouldn't ever be
distributed with the core, it can be downloaded.

If it suits the people who want to develop the plugins that's totally
fine.

Personally I don't feel like I belong to that SF project. I'd prefer to
develop my plugins in maven-plugins. Maybe it's a question of knowing
the other committers. I feel better here. The community is also the same
as the one developing Maven.

I'm not sure there is anything rational in my statement. It's just a
feeling. But feelings are important in a community... :-)

RE: maven-plugins-sandbox

Sure. The only problem is deciding what to move. Can we vote before
moving anything?

Also, do you set up a practice of having new plugins systematically go
through the sandbox and the be promoted to maven-plugins after a vote or
is it an adhoc decision.

For example, I'd like to add a new plugin for Abbot (functional tests
for swing applications). Even though it would be better hosted in the
Abbot plugin they do not use Maven and are thus not familiar with it.
I'd like to move to maven-plugins or maven-plugins-sandbox and then
possibly later move it to the Abbot project if they express interest. In
the meantime, I'll support it. I could move it to the sandbox as a first
step if we wish to try this?
