Paul Smith commented on HBASE-2099:
-----------------------------------

bq. "Someone entered an issue for 3.3.0 re maven and source in the jar a while 
back, for 3.3.0 we have a patch to the build.xml that will address (4 jars now, 
original(current) + bin/src/doc jars for maven repo)"

Ok, good, so they have a plan for that.  It's more an annoyance I guess, 
there's no functional issue I can think of here, since it's the same source as 
the binary, it's just being recompiled (well we HOPE it's the same source 
right.. ? :) ).  The only trickery here is that if it ISN'T the same source, 
then because hbase is lexicographically earlier than zookeeper, in most JVMs I 
think it will find the zookeeper classes from the hbase jar, and use those, 
basically ignoring the binaries inside zookeeper.

My next steps are in order:

* use the assembly plugin to build the overall tar ball, mimic what ivy does
* make the test cases work (I should work out why they also fail under ivy 
first I suspect)
* flesh out the contrib area more (I'm currently only build stargate, and 
probably not completely, because I still haven't added the jruby dependency in 
just yet for runtime)

I think if I do the first 2, then I'll post more details on the list.

> 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?
