A release would be great for the Archiva community and an easier sell to my boss.
Be warned that the releases we're talking about now are from trunk, which has quite a list of known issues. If you want it for direct access to reasonably small Maven 2 repos, it's quite usable, but you may want to wait for the work on the branch to stabilize before really promoting it internally. IOW, if you're doing a demo, be careful what you click on and what you ask it to do. :)
I wonder if there is the possibility of integrating the user and role management with standard J2EE user and role management (ie outside Archiva itself) The goal would be so that I could configure Archiva to use our company LDAP server for authentication and authorization. If Archiva had that and the ability to be configured with JBoss / Tomcat EASILY, it would rock.
Archiva's user management comes from the Plexus Redback project, so this would be something to raise as a feature request over there [1]. If it's implemented, both Archiva and Continuum would inherit it as they get the same webapp overlay. [1] http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/PLXREDBACK -- Wendy
