maven-assembly-plugin version 2.2-beta-2 release schedule?
Any idea when maven-assembly-plugin version 2.2-beta-2 might be
released? I have a build that requires this version. (The
maven-assembly-plugin has several snapshot dependencies so it would be
hard for me to make a private release.)

I've had the same problem - we needed to release and 2.2-beta-1 had a
showstopper in it.
Since I'd done the work and since it's a common theme - if you add
http://mavenversionedsnapshots.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
as a plugin repository in your pom.xml (or your mirror or whatever), and
change your plugin from 2.2-beta-2-SNAPSHOT to 2.2-beta-2.nrm.1 you should
be good.
HTH,
Nigel

Hehe, you touch the nerve of the problem. I kinda have the same
feeling. We need to make sure that a new beta release will not break
existing use cases. And for checking that we need to test and we need
time.

I'd try and help. Really. But the huge stack of technologies involved that
are, basically, proprietary to maven and aren't documented is a substantial
barrier. That and the assembly plugin is really scary... ;-)

that's the same story everytime. We need people to work on plugins and
on the codebase in general. If nobody has the time to work on those
items, we have no release. It is that simple.
We need to make sure that we deliver the right features. I will not be
happy if the new release solves things but also breaks things that
worked before.
If you want to fasten the process, join and help :)
Thanks,

can't we have a 2.2-beta-3 after this one?
It's been 6 months since the last release...

Sorry guys, I've been pinned at work recently, and haven't had time
to try hacking away at the remaining issues slated for 2.2-beta-2.

I asked the same thing last week.. 2.2-beta-2 upgrades plexus-archiver and
should fix PLX-344 which causes the end of our builds for machines to sit
around looking broken for several minutes...
