Hey,

While in theory a diff release would be possible it's quite hard to do
in reality. Someone would need to add a maven plugin either checking
the SCM or the binaries for differences. BUT this could be quite a
challange since there are some parts of a binary changing for each
release without any real changes. So a simply md5 calc won't do for
.jar files... On the other hand some scm diffs and pom parsings could
do some wonders... not sure...

On the other hand it would be (of course) possible to generate a list
or diff release manually but I think this is WAYs to error prone to
give it any real chance.

So if you (or someone else) would like to give it a shot I think we'll
be very pleased adding an additional diff based release to our release
cycles; otherwise I'm afraid such a process would be simply too risky
:-(

Kind regards,
Andreas
