Cite from http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/index.html << groupId This element indicates the unique identifier of the organization or group that created the project. The groupId is one of the key identifiers of a project and is typically based on the fully qualified domain name of your organization. For example org.apache.maven.plugins is the designated groupId for all Maven plug-ins. >> > > Any maven users care to comment? Also, as David said, any help with the > pom files appreciated :) I would like to help. Where is help needed? Issue #39977 or something else? I Will make a review on your POM templates. > > > Also, as well as changing the group id, should I put the files under > /poi/, or under /org.apache.poi/ ? It looks like most apache projects > just use their short name, but a few use org.apache.<name> . We > currently use /poi/. The shorthand comes from the maven1 times where nobody cared about it. But its ugly and also causes that browsing the repository at top-level produces a really long list. There is quite a reasonable load on the server... Anyways it is the same for java-packages. If you do NOT use it properly it might clush with another project and causes big trouble. Anyways its up to you how to decide... > > Nick Best Regards Jörg -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGJ+XGmPuec2Dcv/8RAr3XAJ0RyEvTFjAiMGUyJu+eZUUU1s3b+ACgh7ae bosfso/hml4Bv+6TeVvYggE= =EeIc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mailing List: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#poi The Apache Jakarta Poi Project: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/
