Giridharan Kesavan commented on HADOOP-6671:
--------------------------------------------

@Allen 
you can use mvn to do offline builds by passing -o argument 

@Steve 
Apart from maintaining ivy.xml and pom.xml, by having the pom file it reduces 
the build scripts maintenance. 
As the pom file has got standards for doing any kind of build stuff and its 
easy to maintain.

> We are now able to publish hadoop artifacts to the maven repo successfully [ 
> Hadoop-6382]
> Drawbacks with the current approach:
> * Use ivy for dependency management with ivy.xml
> * Use maven-ant-task for artifact publishing to the maven repository
> * pom files are not generated dynamically 
> To address this I propose we use maven to build hadoop-common, which would 
> help us to manage dependencies, publish artifacts and have one single xml 
> file(POM) for dependency management and artifact publishing.
> I would like to have a branch created to work on mavenizing  hadoop common.
