Hello,
The wicketstuff.org site seems to have gone down over the weekend.
The main item for me is that the maven repository is also missing which
is breaking the wicketstuff-core trunk build (we depend on 1.4-SNAPSHOT).
Apache has a sonatype nexus instance that is available for projects to
use. As far as I can tell this is not being used by Apache Wicket right
now.
I propose that the current wicketstuff.org maven repository unavailable
issue be resolved by migrating the Apache Wicket artifact deployment
process from using the wicketstuff repository to the Apache Nexus maven
repository.
This page has the registration details:
http://www.apache.org/dev/repository-faq.html
It says to create a sub issue on this one:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-1896
The creation of the issue has to be done by a project committer.
If this migration is deemed acceptable I would be able to assist since
its similar to what we did for wicketstuff-core to be deployed into the
oss.sonatype.org repository.
Here is a summary of how we deploy wicketstuff-core into a nexus repository:
We use hudson to build and deploy the artifacts into the oss nexus
repository:
1. create profile that defines the repository url for snapshots
2. create <server> section in settings.xml with the username/password to
use when deploying
e.g. in wicketstuff core we use this profile:
<profile>
<id>oss.sonatype.org-snapshots</id>
<distributionManagement>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>sonatype-nexus-snapshots</id>
<name>Sonatype Nexus Snapshots</name>
<url>http://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots</url>
<uniqueVersion>false</uniqueVersion>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
</profile>
and then we specify a custom settings.xml file to the hudson job that
defines a server like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<settings>
<servers>
<!-- todo replace this with the hudson-wicketstuff user -->
<server>
<id>sonatype-nexus-snapshots</id>
<username>username</username>
<password>somepassword</password>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>
Then we activate the profile in the goals and options section like this:
-P oss.sonatype.org-snapshots -fae deploy

Mike
