I analyzed ALL Tomcat 5.5.9, 5.5.12 and 5.5.15 ibiblio artifacts.
What I found is:
- all 5.5.9 and 5.5.12 artifacts have empty poms - only modelVersion,
groupId, artifactId and version tags, no dependencies!!
- all 5.5.15 artifacts have NO poms (I cannot even find maven upload
issue
for Tomcat 5.5.15 to check who uploaded it)
It would have been synced from the Apache repository, not uploaded.
I'm not sure about "we don't generate empty poms" though. Has that
changed? If there was no pom we used to get a minimal one so Maven 2
would
at least "work" even without transitive dependencies.
I can do an investigation (check out sources from svn, compare with
distribution
sources, compile) and generate all poms with dependencies. I can even
generate
sources and javadocs jars. But I don't know what is the policy.
1. Is it right to prepare pom by person which is not a product author?
When generating dependencies I may omit something that is runtime only
for
example.
For an Apache project with missing poms, I think the best thing is to
convince the developers to put the files in dist/java-repository where
they
will sync over to ibiblio. Less work for Carlos that way. :) If you have
time to create the poms and open a Bugzilla 'enhancement' ticket with
Tomcat, I'll watch for it and help.

Hi Wendy
Now I have some time and I started preparing poms for all Tomcat artifacts.
I have checked out all modules from svn (tags TOMCAT_5_5_15) and now
I'm preparing poms for them. I already see, that I will have many questions.
Where can we discuss it all? On Tomcat Bugzilla?
Question #1: Where are sources for naming-factory-dbcp.jar?
Greetings
Greg
