I have successfully built all of the release jars for 2.2-RC3 and they have been uploaded to maven.geotools.fr. The only part that remains is to have the release process construct the standard binary/src/javadoc archives that we use for normal distribution.

Thanks a lot for yours work.


I have documented the progress I have made so far:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOT/How+to+cut+a+release

It's right at the top in the big blue box.

Can we delete the Maven 1 specific instructions in the above page, and reformat the blue box as top-level text? I ask that because I would like to add some additional notes to the Maven 2 release process, but would prefer to do that in properly formatted text...



Right now I am looking into the maven assembly plug-in to automatically create our distribution archives.

If the assembly plugin do what we want, that would be great. Up to date, I was using some custom plugins as workaround.

Geotools has a few custom Maven 2 plugins. For example all JAR (including dependencies) are copied together in the gt/target directory. If peoples agree, I would suggest to keep all JAR in such flat directory in our distribution: this help to reduce duplication (in the Maven 1 distribution, some dependencies were copied many time in different directories), and is essential if we want to get the "Class-path" entry in META-INF/MANIFEST.MF to work.

For now, cross-module javadoc is generated using the following custom plugin:

   mvn org.geotools:gt2-javadoc:javadoc

The current standard Maven javadoc plugin (beta 3) still have a lot of bugs and is unable to create cross-module javadoc.
