Hey ... I was never talking about distributing them ... The mavenizer is all about you downloading (after Accepting whatever license Adobe wants you to accept). And then simply to transform this download on your local machine. So every user that wants to use it has to mavenize a FDK before using it.
The tool I promised to create (as soon as I have the time to do so) will take care of the downloading but at this point the Mavenizer expects you to download the stuff manually and this code will be the base for the tool I am intending on building ... but I don't want to go into a discussion about this again. Currently I'll simply stick to mavenizing every jar in the Air SDK into the groupId "com.adobe.air.compiler" and hard-code an exception to omit the 3 files from "com.adobe.flex.compiler" or "org.apache.flex.compiler". I think this should do the trick. Chris -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Alex Harui [mailto:aha...@adobe.com] Gesendet: Montag, 28.

If they come from the Adobe AIR SDK download then unless you have a redistribution agreement with Adobe, it is technically not allowed for these jars to be in FlexMojos distribution. That's why in the Apache Flex Maven utilities you promised to write that download utility that requires the user accept the license and then get the stuff from Adobe. -- Alex Harui Flex SDK Team Adobe Systems, Inc. http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui
