Hi,
I'd like to release Maven 1.0 in next weeks. As you can see, I updated jira for
this version.
Before to do it, we need to fix some major issues with some providers.
CVS:
Lot of users have pb with the actual cvs provider because each some cvs client doesn't understand all "standard" parameters described in cvs book. The majority of problems are with the changelog
command and the date range. So I'll write a pure java cvs provider but we'll continue to maintain the native provider too.
Perforce:
Perforce provider doesn't work at all with continuum. Actually, it doesn't support to run scm commands on more than one view in a jvm instance. This problem exist since a long time and need to be
fixed for 1.0. We can probably install a Perforce server somewhere (on the zone?) with an OSS license. Mike, can you help?
Svn: I'd like to implement a pure java provider but svn4j at codehaus isn't
ready yet, so we'll do it later. It isn't a problem because the native provider
works fine.
Note to all providers contributors: Can you look at your specific issues? Move
all issues you can fix in a short term to 1.0 and test your provider with
release plugin AND continuum.
