Overview
--------
The aim of this proposal is to specify the URI syntax for artifacts
for java-based projects. It extends the URI syntax proposal:
http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&ms
gNo=308
Java project artifacts include, but are not limited to:
jars, wars, rars, tlds, source and binary distributions, and
licenses.
URI Components
--------------
An absolute repository URI is written as follows:
repository-uri = access-specifier "/" product-specifier "/"
artifact-specifier
For java artifacts, artifact-specifier is:
artifact-specifier = [type "/"] artifact
type = "jars" | "wars" | "rars" | "tlds" | "binaries" | "source"
| "licenses" | ...
artifact = artifact-name ["-" version] ["-" stype][.ext]
artifact-name = *pchar
stype = "bin" | "src"
ext = "jar" | "war" | "rar" | "tld" | "tar.gz" | "zip" | ...
Checksums & PGP signatures
--------------------------
All artifacts may have an associated md5 checksum, of the form:
artifact-specifier ".md5"
or a PGP signatures, of the form:
artifact-specifier ".asc"
