no worries, this needs to be discussed as it's obviously important to more people.

The release plugin will refuse to work if it detects any *-SNAPSHOT
dependencies in you pom. It's not an absolute guarantee to have a
repeatable build enviroment but it goes a long way already.

Sorry, but not really. It goes about 60% (not even 80%). Maven's automatic magic plugin management gets in the way. Maven2 is what I would classify

mmmm so what if i tar up the maven version used as well ?
I'm not that familiar with maven's automagic plugin management, can you expand a bit more how this could be problematic ?

as "stable", but its not "mature" in the sense that ant or make are. Maven 1 is more mature than maven 2 precisely because no-one is working on it --
all the bugs are likely to stay in :).

yep.


If required i can tar up ~/.m2 ofcourse, no biggy - that should give you
the 100% reproduceability then. At cocoon we don't have a process in
place for this.

I was afraid you'd say that. Jason told me the same thing a while ago. I think I'll go and harass them a bit more. Or maybe I'll write a howto. In any case, don't worry too much and just do the releases. I just resever the
right to be grumpy ;)

ok that's cool Leo. Thanks for your input.
