The better question is what will it take to get the patches applied? I took a glance at 3559 and nothing jumped out and bit me.

Well, that's obviously in the back of my mind, but I didn't want to jump onto the dev list as a newbie and start hollering "apply my patch, apply my patch"... :)

However, I'd like other feedback, plus I'd be hesitant to apply it without the patch having a test case included to verify the fix. I don't have the bandwidth right now to convert the demo project into an integration test.

I'm not sure how the Maven IT's work, but I'll take a look at it and see if I can roll one out, although I've spent two solid weeks on our migration to Maven and I'm pretty sure my boss wants me actually writing code. :)

Also, being my first Maven-internal edit I'm not sure the patch, while functional, is exactly the right change.

It strikes me from a design perspective that it might make more sense in the long run to treat the "test-jar" artifact as an MavenProject object of its own internally. I'm not really sure about that, but it does seem odd to be special casing the ActiveProjectArtifact.getFile() function based on the Artifact's getFile(). On the other hand, I guess its ok, because you aren't risking an explosion of special cases for other artifact types.

Hello,

I just submitted a patch for this bug:

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3559

I don't know if it is the 'correct' fix, but it does the job for my issue.

Unfortunately, I can't want for a new Maven release, so I need to build an in-house version with this patch to deploy to my development team. I'm building off the maven 2.0.9 tag, and tried tweaking the top level pom's version to be 2.0.9.1 and that didn't seem to work (mvn package still
built 2.0.9).

How would I change the Maven version number?

Is there a best practice for naming an in house version? I was thinking of
something like 2.0.9-kiva-1.

Last question: Is there any way I can ease deployment of this version via our shared in-house repository? If it was a plugin I would just upload it into the repo and change our project's dependency, but in this case its Maven it self. I think I need everyone to download the tar.bz or zip and
install it, right?

Thanks,

Josh
