new maven repository for tomcat
The tomcat6 jars are currently being imported into geronimo from the
apache snapshot repo. The tomcat team is now also publishing
officially released jars to a maven repo at
http://tomcat.apache.org/dev/dist/m2-repository (thanks Filip!). I
would like to import the jars from that repo instead of the snapshot
repo so we can avoid using snapshot versions. Is it OK to enable the
tomcat repo in the root pom or should I only enable it in the specific
module(s) that needs it? I prefer to enable in the root pom but as I
recall adding new repos has caused some problems in the past.
Best wishes,
Paul

This really sucks IMO... we don't want to add more repositories. The
more we add, the slower the build will be and the more unstable the
build will be, since if one of those repos is offline, the build will
fail.
Why on earth isn't Tomcat just publishing to the m2-ibiblio-rsync-
repository ?
I don't think we should continue to adapt to changes like this by
simply adding new repos when we find them. We need to work with the
community to find a better solution... otherwise we may well end up
with a repository per dependency, or per projects dependency, which
would be a massive failure.
But for now I guess we don't have a choice.
I don't like it though... :-(

I'll go ahead and add tomcat's m2 repo to the root pom and bump the
version to 6.0.8. If there are any concerns with that approach then
please let me know and I'll move the repo to the specific modules.
We can remove this reference altogether when tomcat starts deploying
to the ASF ibiblio sync repo.
Best wishes,
Paul

Is there a reason they won't post them to the usual places to get picked
up by ibiblio?
