As you noticed from my recent questions to the infra team, cvs and
svn have been separated from minotaur *permanently*, and therefore
we cannot use cvs.apache.org <http://cvs.apache.org> anymore. We
need to change it to something else. I thought specifying
minotaur.apache.org <http://minotaur.apache.org> directly, but Noel
kindly pointed me out that it's wrong. For now, we can use
people.apache.org <http://people.apache.org>, but I think we need to
file a JIRA issue about this so the infra team can create a new
generic name for this use case, such as build.apache.org
<http://build.apache.org> or site.apache.org
<http://site.apache.org>. Meanwhile, we can go with
people.apache.org <http://people.apache.org>.
To clarify, after a convo with Trustin, this change is needed because
we need a place to store our SNAPSHOTs somwhere, and cvs.apache.org
is not this somwhere anymore :)
It would be better if we have a place named maven.apache.org - and we
will ask for it - but right now, we don't have it, so we have to move
to a permanent and stable place to store those SNAPSHOTs that maven
need. This is why Trustin suggest people.apache.org.
This may not work, creating new host names like build.apache.org.
The reason for this is that the Apache server will just redirect back
to people.apache.org.
This should not be a problem, anyway. It's better than to have to change
the pom each time we switch the repo from a server to another, isn't it ?
The reason that we care is that maven does not follow redirects that
go to another site.
it's pretty much a question of pointing to the right server in the DNS,
rather than doing a redirect, if I am not totally wrong.
