it is what holds up releases. the last time i brought up releasing, it was totally destroyed because of maven. the RM shouldn't have to deal with 2 build systems, packaging systems, and repository hell, and that's what maven artifacts require. If there is a large chunk of downstream users, then they can handle this downstream, it doesn't need to be in lucene, just like we don't deal with other packaging systems. Unfortunately there is a very loud minority that care about maven, most of us that think the situation is ridiculous have totally given up arguing about it, except me, i don't want to put out a shitty release with broken maven artifacts like in the past, i'd rather let some downstream project deal with maven instead. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
