Gang,

Although there are still a few things to consider and figure out for
2.0, I have spent most of the time the last few weeks trying to get
the final artifacts to build.

Still got a bit more to do on it, but I would like to get some feedback;;

http://repository.ops4j.org/maven2/org/org.qi4j/2.0-beta-1/

One particular thing is that I am trying to satisfy the non-Maven
developer by generating the URLs for downloading the dependencies of
each of our components and stick it into ilb/dependencies/ folder. I
have still not worked out how to locate the repository, so Maven
Central is currently hardcoded.

Also, should we ship the entire website, or is it better to get the
'versioning' of website working, and link the particular version from
the release with a redirect?

I have excluded putting the "-javadoc" jars into the binary distro,
primarily since I think it is only used by the Maven developer and
they pick that up from the repository. The full javadoc (one
hierarchy) is in the dist though, and I think that is a good thing.
Opinions?

What else?

The idea is that if you download the sources, you should be able to

   ./gradlew -Dversion=2.0-beta-1 dist

and it will build itself, the binary dist and explode the binary dist
into build/dist of the root project.

But I haven't tested that yet.


The build now generates dependencies.xml for each module in Maven pom
format, and I will figure out how to auto include that in the
documentation for each module. Suggestion of DocBook format that will
style well is welcome.


So, even though I have been rather quiet lately, I have managed to
push some important (boring, ungrateful) stuff forward.


Again; Please review and come with feedback.


Cheers
