Hi..

First of all I would like to be the first to appologize for the kind
of *slow* progress on this plugin, but unfortunatly my calendar has
been kind of full for a while now, and I have some problems keeping up
with the bug reports at hand. Also there are (as always) kind of a
complicated picture where one of them is that I cannot get the new
aspectJ binaries to work with the plugin, and I feel that releasing
yet another version using old binaries is kind of a bad idea. But this
set a side (trying here not to seem like a grumpy developer) I find it
a little to passive just to whine about this in the mailing lists (and
my private email). What would on the other side be productive for us
all is that you guys see if you could create a patch (including
testcases) fixing the problem, and I for sure can promise to do
quality ensurance on the code applied and release a new version of the
plugin. or WDYT ?

Hi Mojoers.

We have been migrating a relatively complex CI environment to Maven2 over the 
past few months and are finally able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

We recently tried to start releasing projects, but needed to use the 
aspectj-maven-plugin v 1.0-beta-4 to be able to weave our aspects with our 
code. (Long story.) This version is, of course, a SNAPSHOT, and you can't 
depend on a snapshot plugin when releasing. Ouch.

So we decided to try to check out the source code and fork a version of the 
snapshot so that we could release.
The project would not compile without Java 1.5, even though the POM specifies 
compiler target and source 1.4.
Even then, we had a number of test failures, (when removing the offending Java 
1.5 code) straight from the start.
We're stuck on Java 1.4.2 (and IBM JDK, natch) for a while longer, so this is 
not good for us.

I figured that maybe the code was just broken at the time that I checked it 
out, and attempted to visit Codehaus' CI environment, but can't access *any* of 
them (http://maestro.ci.codehaus.org/). I always get either a timeout or HTTP 
error from a proxy. (CruiseControl, Beetlejuice, Bamboo, and Continuum all do 
the same.)

We've duct taped and stapled the existing binary and metadata into a team repo 
from snapshots.repository.codehaus.org, but the experience and solution seemed 
pretty far from Maven practices.

Thought you'd might like to know.
