Add information about commons email/commons chain issues with Maven and SBCL Change Log: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ @@ -84,6 +84,8 @@ A vote on a 1.0 release is likely to be called soon after the promotion is completed. + Commons Email and Commons Chain have recently run into issues using Maven as a build tool with their dependencies on libraries which are only distributed under the Sun Binary Code License. One of Maven's strengths is the automatic retrieval of dependencies, but the SBCL prevents hosting of these libraries on a public Maven repository. Individual developers must retrieve these libraries independently. This issue also is also complicating automated build processes. An enhancement request has been filed for the Maven Ant plugin which may help some, but our understanding is that the terms of this license will continue to require more manual intervention for these projects than for other Commons projects. + * HttpClient HttpClient has entered the 3.0 beta stage. The API is now frozen unless major problems are discovered. We hope to have a final 3.0 release by the end of 2004 or early 2005. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
