Hoss Man commented on LUCENE-622: --------------------------------- Seeing Michael's update to this issue reminded me that a few days ago when looking in the archives to see some of the discussion that happened during the 2.1 release I was realized that was when the last really big discussion about using maven came up, and one of the ideas put forth was to use the "maven antlib" (some custom ant tasks provided by the maven project) to deal with fetching remote dependencies for contribs (that have them) and publishing our jars (and their pom files) to the main maven repository. thinking about it more now, this also solves our "how do we communicate contrib dependencies to people who download binary distributions?" problem -- we can inlcude the pom.xml files in the release, and people can easily read them even if they don't use maven. between Sami's patch and Karl's tarball it seems like we already have some good pom files for all of the projects, the hard parts are making sure they stay up to date with reality as contribs evolve, and publishing them to the maven repository correctly. it seems maven't ant tasks can trivially solve the second problem, and easily solve the first if we make some changes to use it for fetching dependencies.... http://www.nabble.com/-VOTE--release-Lucene-2.1-tf3228536.html#a9014632 http://maven.apache.org/ant-tasks.html thoughts? > Provide More of Lucene For Maven > -------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-622 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-622 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Task > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Stephen Duncan Jr > Assignee: Michael Busch > Fix For: 2.2 > > Attachments: lucene-622.txt, lucene-core.pom, > lucene-highlighter-2.0.0.pom, lucene-maven.patch, lucene-maven.tar.bz2 > > > Please provide javadoc & source jars for lucene-core.
