I can see leaving the build support around for those committers that like and want to support Maven - I'm sure it wouldn't be easy to rip it out short term. But I still think it should be completely outside of the RM's cares (as Yonik claims it is now - I'd like to see a bit of consensus on it though). The RM does the Lucene release - someone steps up and does the Maven stuff or they don't.
P.S. Every time I have had to do the Maven stuff, there has been issues with uploading the files (permissions are always a little off), or other little things that some dude's maven repo wathcing script pings me about - even when i follow the release todo to a T. It's annoying and a hassle to handle these situations - for Solr 1.4.1 I took forever too fix the Maven repo - first I said: someone who cares about maven please step up - no one did. Eventually I went and got it done because I felt responsibility as the RM. Personally, I think all those little issues should be on some that cares about supporting Maven - it's separate from releasing the Lucene/Solr bits. - Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
