Excellent. I also like the idea of putting the configuration in each repository. I have a few pull requests that now do this for the various repositories.
In the pull requests for the -extensions and -sandbox repositories, I put the checkstyle configuration into a ./buildtools directory that isn't a maven project at all, so there is no way it can be deployed or installed as an artifact. This structure also makes the configuration easier for supporting the maven-site-plugin (i.e. mvn site). Regards, Aaron > On Jan 18, 2019, at 2:08 AM, P.
