Hi Ryan, I think this was attempted awhile ago, Jerome actually tried to move the entire build process to Maven2 but I don't think it fit well and he ended up reverting back to Ant. I use Maven2 myself, so whenever a new release comes out I just have a series of basic poms that I edit and deploy using a simple script. It's hacky but it works. I'm sure at some point in the future when the dust settles a bit (and 1.0 is finally released) then maybe we can get restlet uploaded to the various Maven2 repositories out there. However, I think it might be worthwhile to post some POMs to the mailing list...even if the project isn't built using Maven2, then maybe the POMs can be included in the source distribution and modified as part of the release process to include the appropriate version numbers. That way the POMs are "standard"... Mitch

I'm sure I'm not the first to mention it, but have you considered either switching your build to use Maven 2 or else at least providing Maven 2 friendly jars and POMs? I ask this because I had to generate my own (not very good ones) in our local repository, and now I'm going to have to update again... It might be something to consider for the full 1.0 release, to encourage wider adoption... BTW, are there any pieces of documentation on the representation & resource portions of the library? All the tutorials I saw got as far as the registration of handlers, but didn't really describe common RESTy-patterns for the representation of resources using the library. Anyways, great work, looking forward to trying RC2. Ryan On 1/9/07, Jerome Louvel <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: Hi all, Here is the second release candidate!
