stack commented on HBASE-2099:
------------------------------

.bq What I can probably do is do exactly what I did for our corporate 
mavenization. I took a branch off trunk, and built a sequence of steps to make 
the Maven switch, with a good bit of testing (lots of jar diffs).

This sounds like a good idea.  Working in a branch.  github is good for this 
(Its hard giving a non-committer access to apache svn repo).

> This issue is for discussing pros and cons of moving hbase build to Apache 
> Maven.
> Maven, if you take on its paradigm, does a lot for you.  There are also a 
> bunch of nice plugins that do nice reports on state of project; findbugs, 
> that nice plugin where you can give out urls that will resolve to lines in 
> source code (a doxygen-like thing ... I've forgotten its name).  Other 
> examples are a docbook plugin that would do the build inline with doc build.  
> We could start up the hbase book using docbook format and the hbase book 
> would ride along with versions.
> As I see it -- and its a while since I've done this stuff so things may have 
> since changed -- in the way of an easy move to maven is our src/contrib 
> content.  Maven would have these as distinct projects pulling in their hbase 
> dependency or, if you wanted to take on the maven subproject notion, then, 
> hbase would be at same level in build as the contribs -- it would be a 
> subproject too just built before the others.
> Anyone interested in working on this issue?
