I think this sets the wrong expectation for the snapshots. They are not released code, they are an aid for project developers who should be familiar with the progress of the unstable tree the snapshot represents and that means tracking SVN. The source is there and can just be checked out - and developers should remember that it is what that is in SVN is authoritative not some pre-packaged bundle.

If you want to publish them then go ahead but others should not get an expectation that everyone will do that every time a snapshot is refreshed.

I think it would be very useful to publish source jars (containing Java source code) corresponding to the jars that we have published on the Maven snapshot repository, and our M2 release jars as well. This will make debugging easier in particular with Eclipse.

I'm sure there is a way to do this with Maven but can't find it in their docs how to control the name of the generated jars (from xyz- sources.jar to xyzsrc.jar). Does anyone know how to do that?

Then when I have the source jars how can i publish them? mvn deploy will publish the binary jars but is it going to also publish any source jars I've generated?

Thanks,
