I've never been pleased with the results of the maven deployer and
always thought that it wasn't worth the trouble for a number of
reasons. First, it always broke on me for one reason or another.
Second, I never liked tagging a release candidate right off the bat.
One should always branch, work on fit and finish issues, then make a
final tag and release.
We still have some significant issues open for the 1.0.0 release. Do
we want to cut a release branch now?
Regards.

The release plugin can be used for preparing the release - It would
change our pom's to the next version & then creates a tag with a
release version.
mvn release:prepare -Dfull,release,deploy
Then we can perform the release by running,
mvn release:perform - would perform the release.
It is better to use a altDeploymentRepository & then sign the
releases. Then we can call for the votes & release them...
I had to comment out the gpg-plugin in our pom before starting the
release process. There is a problem using it to sign our release.
This part needs to be manual.

Balaji,
Can you refresh my memory of the maven release plugin? What exactly
does it do to our SVN repo and our projects POMs?
Regards,
Alan

Hi,
I am trying to use the maven release plugin to release the yoko
artifacts & I get the following commit error message:
[INFO] Unable to commit files
Provider message:
The svn command failed.
Command output:
svn: Commit failed (details follow):

Does anyone know why this is the case? Can someone else do the
release?
Thanks

Hi,
We need to start planning for the 1.0 release as we have all the
components in yoko stable. I will start putting together a release
candidate on July 23rd.
Does it sound reasonable? I see some issues in 1.0 JIRA; can we close
them off or move them to 1.0.1? It would take nearly a week to get a
release out of the door, so it would be better if we start planning
for
ASAP.
Thanks
Balaji
