I think a Maven repository upload is necessary if the jars that will be uploaded have public APIs. In that case users will have dependencies in their own code to these jars. In case of annotator components the users don't have code dependencies to these jars so an upload is not necessary from my point of view.
I'm not sure about UIMA-AS. If users integrate UIMA-AS in their application, will they have code dependencies to some UIMA-AS jars? -- Michael Marshall Schor wrote: > I will update the web site, put the artifacts on the > .../dist/incubator/uima site, including rebuilding the eclipse update > site to include the new uima-as components. > > I have never done "maven" repository uploads - do we need this for > uima-as?
