Yes - I should have asked that question with more subtlety. I guess the bottom line is that it is *possible* to get the jars to the repository without doing a maven build, but doing a maven build makes it much easier to publish to the repository. And our history shows that we are unlikely to get the jars to the repository with the build process we are using now. Right?

IMO, that is like "Can we clean a toilet with a toothbrush?" Yes, we can, but who wants to offer up their toothbrush? Not me! :-) The question to me is: "Can we get the iBATIS jars to the maven repository without doing a maven build, and is it the right way to do it?" Yes we can, but no it's not.
