Two things needed for this I think. 1) Record JVM requirements in the POM. Unsure if Maven does this yet, I've not found anything about it online. 2) Upload POMs to repositories so that dependencies of dependencies may be placed in the jar. Or created as a README. Otherwise, it's a good build mechanism and would hopefully replace the combo ant scripts. > I know it's different idea then releasing 'combo' as > separate package but this will help developers avoid > having many jars used in their apps without releasing > new combo every new commons core package. Unsure. I think we'd still use it as a tool to release something. The users who most want a combo-jar are not hte users who want to sit and define their own POMs etc. Hen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
