+1 This was my motivation for moving to nexus... Martin, sometimes I think we all get the verb "release" confused. On one hand, there is the logical act of "releasing" our artifacts to the public. On the other, there is the mechanical act of invoking maven's release plugin. What Lukasz is referring to is the mechanical act of invoking maven's release plugin. It will push the artifact to the nexus staging repository at which point, we can slurp it up and test it (hopefully by running some test apps). Then, give our vote. This is a bit tricky though because Lukasz is trying to commit changes that will result in making nexus integration possible. So, he'll probably have to change the pom, invoke the maven release plugin, and then check that nexus received the new artifact in our staging repository. I assume we'll see a small flurry of svn commits that look like traditional releases (svn branches, poms having -SNAPSHOT versions removed, etc.). But, nothing will end up on maven central or in people.a.o/dist until after we've voted on the quality. To answer Lukasz's question, I would assume that the section you mention does indeed at least need removed. I haven't looked at the apache parent that we're inheriting from in struts-master, or our nexus configuration, but IIRC, the reposit...@apache.org team indicated that inheriting from the parent is all that is necessary. I would assume though, that we (anyone who plans to perform a release) will need to setup our maven settings.xml file to include our LDAP apache username and password. I would imagine that Nexus is configured to only allow struts committers to push artifacts into the repository. (Wendy, correct me if I'm wrong, but) I think usually this is handled by having a server entry in your settings.xml file that matches up with the <id /> record in the pom. -Wes -- Wes Wannemacher Head Engineer, WanTii, Inc.
