As part of my review of the proposed 1.0.4 release (all the sigs match ... but let's see what happens when I try to *use* this stuff :-), I want to try building our distribution artifacts. I could build the framework with no problems -- but trying to build an app fails because this artifact is (correctly) not available in any repository yet. Thinking about it a bit more, we aren't officially distributing *source* artifacts for this POM, or for "org.apache.shale:shale-master:2" either -- both of which you would need to install if you're trying to build Shale. On the other hand, once the distribution is voted in and released, the artifacts will be available (but only if you know to go get them). One could certainly argue that, since our source build system is Maven based, we could expect this to "just work" for our downstream users after a release. But what about folks who are not "always on" connected to the Internet? Or folks who need to be able to build Shale, from source, in Maven's "offline" mode? Maybe we should publish these two POM artifacts as part of some "source distribution" somewhere, like we do all the other POMs? Craig PS: I'm not done reviewing the proposed 1.0.4 bits, but things look good (outside of the issue raised here) so far.
