Well, based on the feedback so far, I think this is a go. I'm going
to release 1.0-beta-3 from Mojo and then work on moving it over, so
the next after 1.0-beta-3 release will be from the Groovy project.

Hi folks, as some of you may already know, I've been continuously
working on creating solid (dare I say kick-ass) integration for
Groovy
into Maven 2. Its come a long way since I started hacking on Jeff
Genender's original bits oh so many months ago :-)
I was thinking that now might be a good time to migrate the related
modules (the bits under https://svn.codehaus.org/mojo/trunk/mojo/groovy)
to the Groovy project (http://groovy.codehaus.org).
My primary reasoning for this move would be to get the core Groovy
developers closer to the Maven integration sources, hopefully to
enlist
some more Groovy minds to add features, fix bugs, etc. A wee side
effect to that is that we may get more Groovy folks more learned in
the
ways of Maven and help enlighten their development ways (or not who
knows). But the main reason is to get those with Groovy on their
mind
closer to this code-base to help it grow, mature and flow into the
what
I'd hope may eventually become the preferred way to add dynamic
scripting into Maven 2 (but again, who knows).
ATM... I am really the only Mojo developer who is actively working on
the Groovy integration, so moving the code-base to the Groovy project
has little to no impact on developer access to sources.
The changes will involve moving the SVN tree from here:
* https://svn.codehaus.org/mojo/trunk/mojo/groovy
to here:
* https://svn.codehaus.org/groovy/groovy-maven2/trunk (actually URL
might differ slightly)
Replacing all of the site ( http://mojo.codehaus.org/groovy ) with a
redirect to the similar published location under:
* http://groovy.codehaus.org
And I guess updating the permissions of the MGROOVY JIRA project (
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MGROOVY ).
* * *
Anyways, right now its just a thought. I already spoke with Jeff
Genender and Guillaume Laforge about the idea and both seem to be
leaning in the positive direction. So, I wanted to ask both
communities
what they think about moving the Groovy Maven integration modules
from
the Mojo project to the Groovy project?
