Hi Gurkan! Thanks for your input. I personally don't think these are really problems, but let's discuss it.
ad 1): The distribution subproject didn't get used. This module should effectively get dropped, because we now use the apache-parent-7 which contains the assembly descriptor Brian, Brett and Benjamin created together with the board [1]. It creates a full source assembly of all the project (including submodules which are not released, etc. This is approved by the ASF board since mid 2009. 2.) For ASF projects, there are no binary distributions usually. All what counts for the board (see long discussion from early 2009 here [2]) is the signed source tarball which is available in our release [3]. I'm not sure if it make sense for OWB to create an uberjar like the openjpa-all.jar. I doubt it, because we will loose all the benefits of our plugin handling. And all the other single jars are available (and signed) in the maven repo anyway. My goal is to use the 'standard' route for releasing maven projects. The reason for this is that it was really a nightmare having 70+ projects and each uses a completely different way to build and release. If you think there should be an additional 'binary-release.zip' artifact containing all the jars of the released module, then we should forward this wish to the board and start the discussion over there. Maybe this might be handy for ant users, but it's _currently_ not mandatory for an official ASF release. wdyt?
