Hi all,
I'd like to propose that we release both the assembly plugin and one
of its shared-component dependencies: maven-repository-builder. See
below for more information on what's included in these releases. I
have two staging repositories for these projects:
maven-assembly-plugin:
http://people.apache.org/~jdcasey/stage/maven-assembly-plugin/2.2-beta-2/
maven-repository-builder:
http://people.apache.org/~jdcasey/stage/maven-repository-builder/1.0-alpha-2/
You can try them out using the following settings.xml snippet:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>maven-assembly-plugin.stage</id>

Let the voting begin! +1/+0/-1, 72 hrs.

The main improvement in the repository builder is inclusion of
parent POMs, and some improvements to snapshot handling (though this
may not be complete yet). I'm attaching the SVN log for more
information about these changes.
As for the assembly plugin, there have been quite a few changes in
the last nine months or so:
