Hi Dennis, I'm excited to see your activity in getting a new River release and getting the artifacts posted to Maven Central. In connection to that would you consider moving Rio's own artifacts to the Sonatype OSS repo so they are automatically synced to Maven Central? More info here: https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Repository/Sonatype+OSS+Maven+Repository+Usage+Guide
I may have suggested this in the past, but the main inhibitor before was that artifacts in this repo were generally supposed to have their own dependencies already in Maven Central and Rio couldn't do that with its River dependencies. That no longer would be an issue with this new River release. Also, I wanted to throw out a warning that I recall there being a problem with one of the River poms that it (errantly) referenced itself as a parent or something like that. It caused a problem with some versions of Maven that failed to detect the loop and crashed. Keep your eyes open if you're planning to reuse the existing poms... -jeff
