My reasons are as follows: First, NMaven does not follow the standard repo layout; second, the repository layout structure is still in a state of flux, meaning that there is a need for potentially changing the layout for .NET
artifacts, while still doing releases.


Not sure where you're getting the idea the layout may change. We've already had this discussion with .Net folks and the standard directory structure for the remote repositories is not changing. The problem is with the .Net linker and can be worked around with plugins. At least for the Java side of things the version in the JAR is never coming off the file name.

If you're referring to something specific proposed for NMaven and a different repository that's one thing, but the structure as it is used currently is not in flux. Not sure where you picked up that notion.

At any rate the .Net artifacts can go somewhere else until we figure it out and doesn't affect everyone else trying to deploy.

We can make a separate repo until the problems are sorted out with .Net.

Getting more into some more specifics, with NMaven, there is no version information contained within the artifact file name and the version must follow a standard 0.0.0.0 format. This precludes the use of "incubator" within the version itself. As mentioned above, at this early stage, it's also not 100% clear on exactly how NMaven .NET artifacts will reside within the repo. For instance, there is an open question as to where pom files will reside when we add the concept of classifiers to the repo. Also, given the repository layout structure for NET artifacts may change over time, as the incubator project evolves, I have concerns whether any of the standard maven repos would accept - and with good reason - an NMaven incubator release at all. I would expect that an incubator release repo would be more amendable
to such changes.
