Hi,
this thread is somehow extending the discussion about "Where to
create JIRA
issues for Maven documentation?" [0] and seeks to clarify the intended
target JIRA project for new issues, especially those projects listed
in the
category "Maven Admin".
For example, the recent issue MNG-3551 is about the contents of the
central
repository and should have been reported under a different JIRA
project. But
where? For me as a newbie it could have been "Maven Repository
Maintenance"
or "Maven Evangelism".
We only need one. The Maven Repository Maintenance doesn't appear to
have any issues in it except one. So I moved it over to Maven
Evangelism and removed the Maven Repository Maintenance project. I
don't think evangelism is the right name but there is only one project
now dealing with the correction of project metadata.
Also, the projects "maven-upload-applications" and "maven-upload-
requests"
look quite similar to me.
I did the same thing and collapsed them into "maven-upload-requests".
Might it be more useful to host all these projects as components in
a single
JIRA project about "Maven Central Repository"?
Sure, we can make a single project and put the metadata correction and
upload requests in that projects as components.
Next up, I am wondering about the purpose of "Maven FAQ" (MNGFAQ)
and its
relationship to the FAQs over at Confluence. Can somebody shed some
light on
that?
So that uses can edit and add FAQ entries, which they do. The wiki is
meant to be the collection point, and one of us is supposed to edit
and move to a document for the site.
Do we really need to link to MPA on the Maven project site? I
believe PMCs
know quite well where to look for the project but why should we
point the
ordinary user to it? IMHO, that's adding more confusion.
You referring to the one link off the confluence landing page
referring to the ITs?
