Re: Use of '/' in ???-specifier's
Here is my 20 second URI http://host/[rootdir]/Orginzation/Product/version/type-specfiic-Artifact one dir each for Org, Prod, and Ver. After that is dependent on the kind of Product. ie the java-artifact-spec. So lets do a 20 sec java artifact spec Stephen McConnell wrote: Nick Chalko wrote: Tim Anderson wrote: For advocates of URI parsing, what problems are you trying to solve? * Discovery of what is available * Repository exploring. * Auto cleanup of repositories.

I'm failing to see the requirement for us to do that *now*. Because Apache projects using the repository would need also non-asf jars that we don't want to distribute - virtual artifacts. And there are other places those jars can be found. I'm failing to see how this impacts a repo that stores ASF-only content. I agree it would be a nice to have, but is it a requirement for an ASF repo? -- dIon Gillard, Multitask Consulting Blog: http://blogs.codehaus.org/people/dion/

I think we should delay, but a week or two maybe enough. Comment on the / issue. Help decidce in the version name not allowing release or latest etc. When that is done, then we can come back to this. I do think with all of Tim's excelent work we can wrap this up in a week or two.
