AFAIK, the Sonatype repository isn't publically writable. Releasing the tools doesn't force you to accept publishing unofficial (aka, not made by you) mavenized SDKs. Moreover, the tool can be enhanced by the whole community and the issues each new SDK brings can be solved easily. This neither doesn't force you to accept modifications on the tools itself but you could receive interesting enhancement I think, and maybe discover some "responsible" guys in the community that you could trust and could help you with the mavenization of adobe builds.

Plus : the source code for FM itself is available, I can hack it and break the buildchain : does this leads to enormous mail traffic on your mailbox ? If this is the case, we should consider a way to determine if a support request is made against a "vanilla" build of FM/AdobeMavenizedSDK or from an altered one (ala "tainted" in linux kernel world) and in such case, refuse to handle the support request.

Use the flex deployer tools to install flex SDK into maven repo, w/o even knowing what/why they are doing and screwing their build. People that use the tool simple because the tool existed. W/o any real need to use it.

>Also I am interested to know who appointed you the gate keeper of 'responsible' SDK management All the guys that screwed their builds on a irrespossible use and then blame either me or flexmojos for the failures.
Go ahead, become the SDK manager, I don't have any problems.
But,
a) I won't provide tools for it
b) won't sanction as official flexmojos repo

Both for the same reason, I won't deal with irresponsible users again.
