Ceki,

I think you are claiming that downloading about 5 poms is taking 2 hours which is highly unlikely for a total size of about 10 kb no matter what your internet connection or maven repo you are using. What you may not realize is that the samples are not only simple javaee applications but also demonstrate "predeploying" them into geronimo as geronimo plugins. This involves downloading most of the geronimo jars from the maven repo as well. I think this is pulling down 50-100mb which with a slow repo could possibly take a couple hours.

After you've built the sample once is a second build faster?

To me the main interest of the samples is as geronimo plugins, but we might be able to come up with a profile that would avoid building the plugins and pulling down most of geronimo.

thanks

Hello Donald,

Thank you for your response.  I frequently build Maven projects
without problems so I don't think my set up is the issue. In any case,
my point is that the sample applications included in Geronimo have
many external references to pom files. Admittedly, I am not familiar
with Geronimo so please take my comments as the first impressions of a
newbie.

I have attached a trivial Enterprise Application to GERONIMO-4429. It
is very similar to Geronimo's own 'mytime' application but without the
external references to pom.xml files.

Continuing the discussion started in GERONIMO-4429...
How is your environment setup -
What version of Maven (should be 2.0.9)?
What version of Java (should be Java SE 5)?
How much memory does your machine have (probably need 1GB)?
