John has started an API cleanup for artifact resolution and one is slated for maven-project but the second we promote these we are really bound to support them and the one that are there now are unsupportable.

Is this different/related to the design paper you were working on?

As I've said before, I'm interested in collaborating on this, and would like to see it posted somewhere.


No, he started on this prior to what I started. I have the underlying logical mechanism. No final API.

Before I'm willing to talk about anything related to 2.1 this is my list:

- Apply as many patches as possible (6 left to look at)
- Clean up JIRA
  - Flush out the duplicates
  - Close what issues have been dealt with
  - Delete the issues with incomprehensible explanations
- I think if 10 of us when in there for a day we could reduce what cruft there is and discuss how to manage the great information that's in there which we generally don't look at
- Release 2.0.7
- Document making patches so nothing will be accepted without at least working example project, with a preference for unit tests and integration projects
  - Make an archetype for test cases
  - Make an archetype for ITs
  - Document running the ITs
- Dealing with the IT issues I've listed previously
- Separate the design documents from the Taxonomy
- Taxonomy
  - The start being the actual home page of the Maven space
  - Align JIRA to Taxonomy
  - Align Wiki to Taxonomy

(I put the list here: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Home at the top).

Until these things are done we'll continue moving along slower then we could be. I've managed to get releases out in a reasonable time frame and it will only get better by finishing these items first and I think we need to pull together and deal with these first before any meaningful discussion can ensue.
