Ruwan,
If we can eliminate the parent module in a clean way, I'm in favor of
it. In the meantime, I restored it so that the code can be built
correctly. Please also note that the parent POM contains some metadata
(mailing lists, dev team, etc.) that should be moved to the axis2-
transports POM before we remove the parent module.
I noticed that the Geronimo project uses maven-shade-plugin to build
the kind of uber-JAR we are looking for. Maybe this works better with
OSGi?

Hhhhmmmm :( I am sorry, you are correct it was building for me
because it is
on my local maven repo.
I saw you have reverted the parent module, but I still think we
should be
able to get rid of this and make the root pom as the parent pom.
Any way the current strategy of building the complete jar is not
gonna work
for the OSGi bundle generation. I will have a look at this and get
back.
Thanks,
Ruwan

As the name implies the parent POM is the parent of all other modules
(except the POM in the root directory), so it's not at all obsolete
and you
should not remove it. If you are still able to build the transports
after
removing this, it is only because this parent POM is still
available from
your local (or some other) repository! Can you please revert this?

Hi devs,
I had a look at the current maven build of the transports and
realized
that
the complete axis2-transports.jar is generated from the root pom
but there
is an obsolete module also to do the same but is not doing anything.
Therefore I removed that. Andreas, I hope this ok from the tests
reports
point of view as well.
At the same time for the moment this complete transports jar is
generated
with out the jar plugin and we will need to change the way we
build this
jar
in order to produce an OSGi bundle jar (but not just a jar). Hope
it is
OK.
Thanks,
Ruwan
