If you keep versions in reverse order it means that docs for this part of the POM are not good enough!

At least I am sure that POM holds enough data for comparing and ordering different versions of artifacts. Implementation of "version comparator" seems to be quite easy too. What about adding <versions> section as required in POM for uploading artifact to ibiblio? regards Michal --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
