Hi Steve, We talked last week about needing to be able to build a distribution with Maven, since the functionality wasn't there at the time, and I need to ship some JMS features this week. You said it shouldn't be a problem to get Maven doing that in time. The new JMS compatibility features have now been checked into the trunk and we need to be able to ship it to one of our users here. He's a new user on a new project so we need him to have a good experience of the product, as I'm sure you will agree. Is the Maven distribution functionality ready yet? If not, when will it be ready? Since the old Ant build system has been removed from the trunk as part of the Maven work, this is now a pressing issue. How should I proceed?
Hi Robert, sorry for the delayed response, but it's the Thanksgiving holiday here.
I guess it depends what exactly you're looking for. You may have already found that if you go into the distribution subdirectory and run maven, you get tarballs and such. They are still missing javadoc and would be missing some of the notices and license files and such, but I think that's OK since you're just building a snapshot. However, if there are things missing that you definitely need, then tell me what they are and I'll quickly address them.
