It's ok. I vented some steam and I apologize. I didn't open another issue because there was already one opened in June (MPXDOC-148) and closed by Arnaud on Jun 28th. But after the bug was closed, nothing happened. Shall we reopen the issues until something happens? That wouldn't make much sense, would it? There are currently 57 open issues with xdoc. There are similar numbers open with other plugins. It is obvious that you guys are drowning in bug reports. >>However, nothing has happened since for more than two months. The only >>advice (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPXDOC-148#action_41816) was >>"use the current trunk snapshot". Now guess what: >> >> >You're missing -Dmaven.repo.remote=http://cvs.apache.org/repository/ Do I? I followed the advice in the issue report. That is exactly the point. Most people don't have the time to find all the necessary, relevant information to get stuff running. I followed advice from one of the plugin developers. It did not work. I was frustrated.

But we'll get the release together >as soon as possible. I'm test-driving maven 1.1 for a number of projects (to have less nasty surprises once 1.1 will leave beta status). That requires 1.9 AFAIK. No luck here. Of course I had a specific reason for maven 1.0.2, too. I'm running a few projects where I need i18n. Following your advice means, that either these projects break on me (because of 1.8) or other projects break on me (because of 1.9.1). Lately I started to hard code plugin versions in my POMs as a result of this. Which is IMHO not really the way to go with maven. So can we please have a 1.9.2 release? Regards Henning -- Dipl.-Inf.
