Hi James, I belive that building a distro from the binary tarball is the best way to go, as they should be in sync and we can create distros in the release process.
I started experementing with unix-maven-plugin http://fisheye6.atlassian.com/browse/activemq/trunk/assembly/pom-rpm.xml?r=HEAD but it doesn't behave quite as I expect. One other thing is that it needs to be executed on the specific platform as it is just a wrapper for the native commands. So, I'm thinking about doing it without maven as I don't see any advantages of it. BTW. I'll use https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-2105 for all related work in this area. Thanks for your contribution and please post your comments.
