It would still be separate. What I'm really suggesting is putting
the helper (abstract test base class, used by both Maven's test

them together. Shared is fine too, but I was thinking giving them
their own trunk as a multi-module.
I can go ahead and release the verifier on it's own, but the
structure of the core-integration-testing is not conducive to
releasing maven-integration-test-helper which is also needed. I
think it makes more sense alongside the verifier.
I don't really see much value in shuffling this around more right
now. What would really help is to take the core-it-runner thing and
put that in the same package and remove the duplication in the trunk
and branches as that's really a separate module and doesn't belong
with the rest of the code. And what would add even more value is
knocking off some of these issues first:

Tangent. Focus! :)
I certainly don't want to move the verifier and second we change or
add ITs which is happening fairly often now it just forces
releasing, waiting for 3 days, people being out of sync. I just
don't see it being worth it. It's easy in Hudson to run this stuff
for our development purposes and CI.
That's not what I'm aiming for. That can go back to a snapshot and
stay there as soon as it changes, but I'd like to do a release so that
NMaven doesn't require a snapshot.
All I'm planning to do is:
* release verifier
* release maven-integration-test-helper (and the assoc archetypes/
sample for good measure)
The latter would be ugly (with tags 3 levels up and needing to release
a parent without its modules, etc), so I made a proposal to put them
altogether as they are bits reusable outside Maven Core integration
testing, as with the verifier, as you said.
Do you have a different suggestion? I figured in essence you agree
with me since you started to pull the support away from the suite,
it's an extension of that.
I sent this to make sure I'm not inadvertently mucking with others
running the ITs so if anyone else has some concerns that there's
something I've missed, let me know. Any takers?
