I've fixed the build problems, by changing lots of poms in the uimaj, uima-as, and sandbox that refer to the 1-SANDBOX version to be the right version for the trunk - mostly 2-SANDBOX but some 3-SANDBOX and 4-SANDBOX...
I'm rebuilt the base, sandbox, and uima-as, and will update the trunk soon. -Marshall On 7/6/2010 11:10 AM, Marshall Schor wrote: > We're climbing the learning curve on building right now... using the Nexus > apache repository, and the maven release plugin. > > What I think is happening (I've been grappling with it myself this morning), > is > we've had some releases of build tooling, and some failed releases of build > tooling.
