That's the tricky thing though Martin... The step that causes the problem is the post-prepare step... When you run 'release.' I could do mvn release:prepare, then do a dryRun of release:release, but if everyone that wants to "test" this change does this, then we'll pollute SVN with branches that aren't necessary. Admittedly, I'm not a Maven guru (getting better with time though), so if any resident maven experts (ahem... flashing the Bat-symbol at the night sky to get Wendy's attention) have input I'd be glad to know what he or *she* might think. :) > Don't forget that struts-master will need a PMC vote to release it > before we can vote on, and especially release, anything that's built > using it, including struts-annotations. Noted... I don't mean to break protocol if I ever do it, please know that it is not intentional and that I don't disagree with the protocols, I just have so many processes to remember (currently working as a DoD subcontractor, so I have been working off of so many rulesets and protocols that I feel like I am constantly trying to play some silly frat-house drinking game [not meant toward struts/apache, but anyone else doing federal contracting can probably relate*]). * http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/The-Longest-Yard-and-a-Half.aspx -Wes -- Wes Wannemacher Head Engineer, WanTii, Inc.
