Chris Hubick commented on HTTPCLIENT-768:
-----------------------------------------

Thanks a lot Oleg!

(And sorry for not sending patches, I only knew how to do it manually - not how 
to attach-sources to the maven-source-plugin jar goal execution as you did)

> Publish source/javadoc jar files to the Maven repository

> It would be really nice if HttpComponents (Core and Client) published jar 
> files to the Maven repository for not just the bytecode, but also for the 
> source and javadoc (done by defining a "classifier" attribute of "javadoc" or 
> "source" for the jar when publishing with Maven).
> Having these in the Maven repo allows an IDE (like Eclipse) to auto-download 
> and attach the source/javadoc to the HttpComponent jar files - meaning 
> developers will then see the API documentation automatically in their IDE.  
> This also greatly aids debugging if one needs to step through HttpComponent 
> code, and placing the source in the hands of more developers also means you 
> might see more patches coming back.
