John Allen commented on MNG-367:
--------------------------------
Re installers - We deploy our developers java environment via a nice looking
NSIS installer (all built using m2 of course) Anyway, that puts in place the
m2, then runs (optionally) the JDK, SVN, Tortoise installers and sets up a
correct m2/conf/settings and $HOME/.m2 as well as defines MVN_OPTS to ensure
the correct keystore info is passed to the JVM so that webdav deployments work.
Not hard. And because of the per user env and HOME setup works for multiple
users on the same box.
> best practices: multi-user installation

> so we need to support:
> - read only install
> - setttings in the installation
> - works with just the m2 executable in the path (no M2_HOME setting)
> - possibility of a remote settings file for standalone installs, force a
> regular (daily) check when online to push updates
> encourage:
> - storing of install on a shared, read only drive
> - possibly use a CVS checkout
> - may want to integrate with existing deployment policies (eg an MSI that can
> be easily deployed)
