please

Maven Central SSL
-----------------
Now available. Unsigned artifacts + unsecure download source = trouble
Sonatype were charging people a fee, 14 subscribers ever :-p
Now available for free (right?)
Upgrade OSGeo and other repos to SSL?
If you want to do that raise a ticket in trac? Would need a search and
replace pom.xml? Which would break http access (inconsistent pom.xml https
vs http).
Q: Update reference to maven central? (for master)
A: Volunteer Ben cause he knows everything!
2.6-beta release
----------------
Yay! So how did the beta do?
Downloads:
Testing feedback:
1) wfs-ng? Bug raised - but no action
- ping niels (and justin?)
- https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-4862
2) rendering?
- was not beta specific
3) Jody's preflight testing
* OSX: yet not working (installer), couple suggestions, hack the JDK
(install guide as a temporary measure)
* Windows: not staring if you are not running as a service (normal batch
scripts are not working) -> unpack in a different directory, program data
something
* Remove the source packaging, just point at Github (remove from release
scripts?)
4) Jukka testing
Testing start.bat is not finding java home?
(Jukkka to testing) startup.bat is checking JAVA_HOME and that is no more
set -> needs different logic for finding jre
Possible Workaround of setting JAVA_HOME env variable.
Or try to understand what Edgar Soldin has done with OpenJUMP
