Well, let's not get stuck on it :) Some options:
1) Ask on derby-user, to see if anyone there wants to help 2) Disable the derby.war part of the maven publishing, and do all the rest 3) Skip the maven publishing entirely. If somebody else really wants this maven stuff, then they'll show up and help us figure it out. bryan On Tue, Mar 5, 2019 at 6:57 AM Rick Hillegas <rick.hille...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On 3/4/19 8:10 PM, Bryan Pendleton wrote: > > Hmmm..
