The whole point of the new structure is to provide an agnostic way to deal with repositories. Hence the removal of the CVS specific elements in the POM. Underneath we are still dealing with CVS only but that's simply a matter of not fleshing out the handling mechanism for SCMs other than CVS. The method used is one that reflects something like the JDBC mechanism where you have an URL and it's up to the handler to parse URL and do with it what it will. We could have elements within a repsository to handle the specifics of the SCM a la: <repository className="org.apache.maven.CvsRepository"> <root/> <module/> </repository> But we decided to go for the handler mechanism where the handler will deal with the URL. > -jon > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- jvz.
