A few months ago I opened a tomcat issue requesting them to publish the tomcat jars to a maven repo. http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41093
Yesterday they marked the issue as resolved since the tomcat jars are now available at http://tomcat.apache.org/dev/dist/m2-repository, but commented that they would publish to central if there is a way to work around a problem with PGP signatures:
Doesn't seem like I can publish to the central repo because it requires PGP signatures and maven doesn't let you do that with single JAR if you're not building with Maven. If you have a way to get the PGP info in there in the way we are doing it now, let us know and open a new bug.
If anyone knows of a way to sign single JARs not built with maven then please enlighten us or just go ahead open a new tomcat bug with the details. This may be the only remaining impediment towards making the tomcat jars available on central. Best wishes, Paul On 2/13/07, Jason Dillon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
