Hi,

as already discussed in

   http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=115719054100004

I would like to approach a release of the commons POM.

- At the time of the above thread, the maven-changes-plugin was available as a
 snapshot release only. In the meantime, this has changed.
- The POM is using a resource with the base directory as resource
 directory. As discussed, this is causing problems with the
maven-source-plugin.
 Therefore, I propose to replace
     <resources>
       <resource>
         <directory>${basedir}</directory>
         <includes>
           <include>NOTICE.txt</include>
           <include>LICENSE.txt</include>
         </includes>
         <targetPath>META-INF</targetPath>
       </resource>
     </resources>
 with
     <plugin>
                <!-- This should possibly better be done by using a resource
                     definition. However, if we declare a resource with
                     ${basedir} as the base directory, then the
                     maven-source-plugin will add the whole directory to
                     its contents.
                -->
       <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
       <executions>
         <execution>
           <phase>generate-resources</phase>
           <configuration>
             <tasks>
               <copy todir="${project.build.outputDirectory}/META-INF">
                 <fileset dir="${basedir}">
                   <include name="LICENSE.txt"/>
                   <include name="NOTICE.txt"/>
                 </fileset>
               </copy>
             </tasks>
           </configuration>
           <goals>
             <goal>run</goal>
           </goals>
         </execution>
       </executions>
     </plugin>


There is one additional issue, which I do have myself. Checking out
the trunks-proper directory  in order to edit the POM will typically
result in checking out all of jakarta-commons. Obviously, that's not
what I want. Therefore, I propose to create a module
commons/commons-parent, change the pom's artifactId from "commons" to
"commons-parent" and move the POM to that place.

Once that is decided (and possibly done): Are there any further issues
or are we ready for a vote?
