Hi All,

An important task to complete before 3.5-FINAL is to make sure that the ooxml dependencies are available on the central Maven repository.

There are two jars to worry about:

(1)  ooxml-schemas.jar
This jar contains XmlBeans generated from the Ecma supplied xsds downloaded 
from:
    
http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST/Office%20Open%20XML%20Part%204%20(DOCX).zip

We have a set of ant tasks to download the xsds and build them into the jar: check-ooxml-xsds, fetch-ooxml-xsds and compile-ooxml-xsds.

I don't see why we shouldn't keep the generated jar under GroupId "org.apache.poi". I went ahead and produced the artifacts. The groupId is "org.apache.poi", artifactId is "ooxml-schemas", version is "1.0".

The artifacts are available for review at
  http://people.apache.org/~yegor/maven-ooxml-dependencies/org.apache.poi/

(2) OpenXml4J

Eventually OpenXml4J will be a part of POI but for now it's a 3rd party jar. Currently it is not in the Maven repository, so I did the job and prepared the artifacts for openxml4j-bin-beta-080728.jar, the jar we are currently using.

The groupId is "org.openxml4j", artifactId is "openxml4j", version is "1.0-beta"

The artifacts are available for review at
  http://people.apache.org/~yegor/maven-ooxml-dependencies/org.openxml4j/

The artifacts for both (1) and (2) are available for review till Friday, October 31. Then I'm going to upload them in the repository. Please review if you are interested in it.

Yegor
