Hi,
It is time to release version 1 of the commons-sandbox-parent. The
latest changes includes updating the parent to commons-parent-3 and
locking down the versions for plugins. Note that I have changed the
artifactId to commons-sandbox-parent, to have a consistent naming
scheme
(compare it to commons-parent).
This will be the first release and is important because it enables
reproducible builds and site generation for the sandbox components.

I haven't yet understood why we need to release anything from the
sandbox at all. Sure, reproducibility is a good thing, but I doubt the
builds are radically irreproducible without this release; and more
importantly, I believe if people are interested in the sandbox
components and their reproducibility, they should help get a release
out instead.
IMO that's not very pragmatic. I think we would want to lower the
barrier and get people involved. Providing a POM will make builds
easier for the people that we want to attract.
What I am failing to understand is what the fuzz is about. It's a
POM ...it's metadata - not an artifact. No code!
So here is my +1 for the release.
cheers
