Henri Yandell commented on MEV-443:
-----------------------------------
Not soon I suspect - I think we should write a simple script that goes in and
rewrites all the metadata files at our whim.
Alternatively, write a script to identify problems in the files, and then
another to fix them.
> Several projects have maven-metadata.xml files that are missing released
> versions

> Key: MEV-443

> Project: Maven Evangelism
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Invalid Metadata
> Reporter: Patrick Moore
> Attachments: maven-metadata.xml

> I am trying to use the version range feature that is talked about in Better
> builds with Maven. I am specifying the commons-httpclient dependency as
> <dependency>
> <groupId>commons-httpclient</groupId>
> <artifactId>commons-httpclient</artifactId>
> <version>[3.1-alpha1,)</version>
> </dependency>
> Unfortunately, the usefulness of this feature is being sabotaged because the
> latest version of artificat is not listed in the maven-metadata.xml.
> Please update the maven-metadata.xml in this project and others. In
> particular
> hsqldb,
> commons-*,
> rhino/js
> htmlunit
> When updating those files, please do not list the versions using dates as
> their version id as it screws up the maven feature that allows dependencies
> to specify a version range.
