The problem with jars (or any binary files) is we can't verify the contents. When I as an IPMC member vote on this I am asserting that this is safe and good software, in compliance with licenses, etc. I can't do that once binary code is in there. There's no way you'll get this through the IPMC with a jar in the source release. Apache is very insistent that official releases be source only. This is for its legal protection. You can do a binary "release" which is just making convenience artifacts available on the website, that includes this jar if you want, or you can include the source for the jar (assuming it's not binary) and put in rules in the pom to jar it up at build time.

Hi Alan,

The jar only contains code styles for intellij idea ide, compatible with the coding guidelines for the project and only contains only xml configuration files. I am running the tests to see if I can replicate the error you are seeing.

Thanks
