Time to release the Release plugin?

Are there any plans to release a new version of the Release plugin any time soon? It's been since last May (!)...

The particular feature we're most interested in is for it to insert explict versions of the build plugins while creating the release POM. This is a necessary prerequisite to having truly repeatable builds. There are comments in the code to the effect that this feature is planned, but I can't seem to find the JIRA issue that tracks it...

Yes please, lest us not forget about the war plugin!  MWAR-55 is the
biggy, which is now fixed.

Regarding the release plugin, MRELEASE-122 is a blocker for a lot of
people - any chance of getting that fixed for the next release?

Cheers,

Mark

Great, you guys use this thing so if you wanted to polish that up for  
a release then I'm sure people here would be happy to give you access  
to maven-plugins so you can continue to work on it with minimal hassle.

Re: Time to release the Release plugin?

Posted by Jason Dillon <ja...@planet57.com>.
I can look to see if there us any more work that needs to be done on  
it... but the 2.2-SNAPSHOT is much more functional that he 2.1  
release, so I would say just release it as is.

There are 4 opened issues:

MRAR-7		Rar plugin des not allow to include vendor-specific  
deployment descriptors to META-INF
MRAR-3		Rar should be, or be able to be considered as, attached  
artifacts
MRAR-13	.svn dirs are included in the rar package
MRAR-9		Avoid to bundle rar dependencies (w/o scope=provided) inside  
the rar archive

MPRAR-13 is fixed as far as I can tell (and should be closed with fix  
for version set at 2.2).  MRAR-3 and MRAR-9 look easy enough to fix,  
maybe MRAR-7... will have a deeper look.

You can now do any work you like in the Maven Sandbox here:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/sandbox/plugins/

If you copy over from trunk and do all the work there applying  
patches, testing, then once you think it's ready it's very easy for  
me to merge to the trunk of the RAR plugin and do the release. We  
setup the sandbox for just this sort of collaboration. If you do this  
a few times I'm certain you'll be invited to the plugin team.

Re: Time to release the Release plugin?

The maven-rar-plugin also need to get released. 2.1 has a nasty bug  
that causes it to include .svn junk.  Fixed in 2.2-SNAPSHOT

Wow.  Excellent.   I think someone mentioned a bug in the war plugin that 
needs to be fixed as well.   :-)

One thing to keep in mind...   After Nov 1, 2006, all releases MUST have 
the proper Apache license/notice files in the META-INF dir (see [1]) 
which none of the above plugins currently do.   Thus, all of the above 
folks will need to coordinate how they want that done.  Maybe add the 
apache license injection plugin thing we discussed earlier added to the 
above list.   Either that, or get them released by Tuesday  :-).

Thanks a lot for taking all this on.

3 of the 4 remaining issues for the 2.2 release have been solved. I'm

Any updates on the status' of these releases?

I know Maven 2.0.5 was also added into the mix of stuff going on.    I 
must admit, I'm quite excited to see things happening after a long time 
of very few releases.   However, stretching people too thin so nothing 
gets completed would be bad.

Ok, I spent a little time rounding up some people to take on releases  
and we have the following:

maven-dependency-plugin: John Tolentino
maven-surefire-plugin: Kenney
maven-pmd-plugin: Joakim
maven-checkstyle-plugin: Joakim
maven-release-plugin: Jason

And seeing as I found people for those you are going to do the maven- 
assembly-plugin :-)

We'll all start working next week and release them as soon as we can.

Jason.

I talked to Kenney and he's volunteer to take this one so that I can  
do the release plugin. He already fixed the the TestNG support so  
I'll let him keep going. He's going to work on this next week. I have  
been focusing on the integration tests and getting the syncing  
automated this week and I won't get around to plugins until next week.

If that's all it really is then I can probably wing that one off too.

I know that John has done a lot of work here so maybe he wants to  
release it :-)

While we're on the subject, what about some of the other plugins that 
haven't seen action in a while or have other major issues:

1) maven-dependency-plugin - this one actually has docs on 
maven.apache.org 
(http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/).  However, it 
doesn't actually exist.   It's NEVER been released.   The only released 
version available is the older "mojo" versions that don't have all the 
new goals documented at apache.org.   Anyway, having a plugin listed at 
apache.org that doesn't actually exist is probably not a good thing.

2) surefire - the 2.2 version is pretty much un-usable in a reactor build 
with reporting turned on as all the tests are "cumulative" and you get 
results from previous modules in the current module.    We've had to 
force the usage of 2.1.3.     Also, JUnit 4 would be nice.   :-)   (one 
project I'm involved in has almost abandoned the ant -> maven transition 
due to lack of JUnit 4 support)

3) PMD - pmd 3.8 was released a few weeks ago.   Updating the plugin just 
to use 3.8 would be nice as it fixes several problems with JDK 1.5 code.   
(Requires 3.8 being added to central)

4) Assembly - hasn't been released since May.  The SNAPSHOTS have some 
fixes that were required by tuscany.  Not sure the details.   However, 
they cannot use the release plugin due to the snapshot dependency.  (not 
that they could use the release plugin anyway due to previously 
documented issues with the release plugin and the apache processes)

I'm sure other people have more plugins they'd like to see released.   I 
know a bunch of the maven folks are hard at work on things like Archiva, 
Maven 2.1, rsync improvements, etc...  However, IMO, the current plugins 
aren't receiving the love and attention they need and the community is 
suffering for it.

Maybe I should find some time to help out....  :-(

I'd like to get the patch on MRELEASE-124 applied.

And it does have tests :-)

Oops, you said release plugin..  I'm all for that too, especially if
it fixes that NPE bug.
