Hi everyone, for external XSD downloads for the DMN and BPMN standard, we have Maven modules that downloads those XSDs and packs them into jars. Recently there was a problem with the Drools build, because the OMG organisation had some outage and the XSDs were not available to download, so the DMN XSDs jar build was failing. To fix the problem, there was an effort to have fallback URLs for download. For DMN, there is GitHub organisation of the OMG RTF taskforce, that contains these XSDs.
We have two proposed solutions, how to have the fallback downloads implemented. Gabriele implemented a custom Maven plugin, extending the download-maven-plugin that we already use to download the XSDs. You can see it in his PR here (1). I myself found out that such fallback downloads are able to be configured without any custom code just using the download-maven-plugin we aready use. You can see my solution here (2). There is some discussion about the proposed solutions in my PR, where Gabriele thinks my solution is not ideal and where I think Gabriele's solution is not ideal. Could you please review both solutions and give us feedback, which is the preferred one?
