I'm trying to get the cocoon.jcr block compiling but cannot find a

Anybody knows of one? I've found a jcr-1.0.jar at
http://www.day.com/maven/jsr170/jars/ but I don't want to list the Day
server in our poms.

I also don't know whether that one is publically redistributable and the
Maven 2 docs suggests downloading it from the official Sun site and
installing it into each ones local Maven2 repository.

Any ideas how to solve this?


This is mentioned in the maven docs (though of not much help) :

Also read the discussion on [email protected] :

(thread "Making a redist of all the javax.* packages")


Aren't there geronimo packages available for this, like eg
geronimo-spec-javamail.jar ?

careful. JCR is *NOT* part of J2EE, so looking for them in Geronimo is the wrong place. The reference implementation of JCR is JackRabbit, currently under incubation.

NOTE: unlike much of the sun stuff, JCR is released under a compatible license that was written by our very own Roy Fielding and is very similar to the Apache License 2.0, and designed to be compatible with it.

I don't know the status of the licensing releasing of JCR, though, but I'm sure the email I copied on jackrabbit will give us the answers we want.
