+1 (binding) with the following observation/bug: The README.txt in the bin distro has the instructions for bootstrapping the maven plugins but the README-std-src.txt in the source distro does NOT have these instructions, which is bad. The other thing that is bad is there is no build.xml in the top level to perform option 1, so you have to do option 2.
============================================================= IMPORTANT: the *first* time you build a given version of Axis2, you will not be able to do a regular "mvn install" from the top level - this is because we have a couple of custom Maven plugins that (due to some dependency- resolution issues in Maven) must be built and installed in your local repository before a build will succeed. This means you need to do one of the following: 1) Use ant (http://ant.apache.org) to build the first time. There is a build.xml at the top level which automatically builds the plugins first and then runs a regular "mvn install". 2) Manually "mvn install" both of the plugins in the following places: modules/tool/axis2-mar-maven-plugin modules/tool/axis2-aar-maven-plugin ============================================================= Tom Jordahl -----Original Message----- From: Glen Daniels [mailto:g...@thoughtcraft.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 20, 2009 10:49 AM To: Axis-Dev Subject: [VOTE] Axis2 1.5.1 - final vote (I hope :) ) OK, after adding the default 30-second timeout for connection starvation issues, and confirming that Rampart now works fine with 1.5.1, let's try this one more time. Please VOTE on releasing 1.5.1 - then we can get moving on 1.6! You can find the distribution files in here: http://people.apache.org/~gdaniels/stagingRepo/org/apache/axis2/distribution/1.5.1/ And the M2 repository with everything is at: http://people.apache.org/~gdaniels/stagingRepo The SVN tag is: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/axis2/tags/java/v1.5.1RC3 ...and I'll add a proper "v1.5.1" tag as soon as this release goes final. Please offer your VOTE (and indicate binding/non-binding). Here's my +1 (binding). Many thanks, --Glen
