Hello, I would like to integrate the toolchains proposal into current trunk. http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Toolchains There are multiple steps towards the final goal.
1. move the internal components from shared/ to components/ and make it part of default core distribution. It shall be part of both 2.1-SNAPSHOT (trunk) and 2.0.9-SNAPSHOT (maven-2.0.x branch). http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/shared/trunk/maven-toolchain The migration includes change of groupid. 2. perform a 1.0 release of the components. After that release, switch to regular versioning (thus 2.1-SNAPSHOT and 2.0.9-SNAPSHOT). This is necessary for plugin developers. See Backward Compatibility section in the Toolchains document. "Any plugins using the toolchains components don't need to explicitly set the maven prerequite to 2.0.9-SNAPSHOT. The components will work but will fail to deliver a configured toolchain, thus they will keep behaving the same way as they did before. That's critical for further development of plugins." 3. merge changes to javadoc, surefire and compiler plugins into their trunk versions. Start work on adapting other plugins as well. 4. when maven 3.0.9 gets out of the door, release first version of the maven-toolchains-plugin. Ideally all major plugins will get a new version out with support for toolchains by that time or we release them simultaneously. This is the big rollout for toolchains. all documentation etc. needs to be uptodate at this point.
