Dear PMC,
The new Nexus maven repository solution for managing maven based
releases sounds very promising.
For more background information and a list of other ASF projects
already taken the bite, please see:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-1896
One of the requirements from the Nexus team before a project (or
subproject thereof) can participate and leverage the Nexus
repository is that the PMC has voted positively on doing so.
The full impact and feasibility of using Nexus isn't completely
clear however, and switching all of Portals release management to
it is definitely not our goal yet.
The new Portals Applications sub project however might be a good
"test drive" for using Nexus for which I'm calling a vote now.
In the last few weeks, we've defined new "super" maven-2 poms for
both Portals itself as well as for Applications, see:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/portals/portals-pom/trunk/pom.xml
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/portals/applications/applications-pom/trunk/pom.xml
And, we have a first Applications release "candidate", webapp-
logging, see:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/portals/applications/webapp-logging/trunk/
The proposal is to try out Nexus using the above three "projects":
portals-pom, applications-pom and webapp-logging.
If this works out fine, of course we'll intend to gradually
"upgrade" by moving more Portals projects to Nexus.
Please cast your vote on moving the above three projects to Nexus
repository:
+1 Go for it
0 no opinion, I don't care
-1 Not now (please provide your arguments)
+1 go for it dude
