[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2538?page=all ]
Eric Redmond updated MNG-2538:
------------------------------
Attachment: plugin_index.patch
Most of the comments above related to the repository, not documentation.
However, there were some improvements that could be made, new plugins additions
and one broken link (jetty). Improvements attached.
> Improve plugin documentation on http://maven.apache.org/plugins/index.html.
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-2538
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2538
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation: General
> Reporter: Davy Toch
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: plugin_index.patch
>
>
> On http://maven.apache.org/plugins/index.html, the following text is
> available:
> "To see the most up-to-date list of available plugins, browse the
> Maven 2 plugin repository at http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/.";
> However in this folder you have:
> 1. maven-plugins : apparently contains only M1 plugins
> 2. plugins : contains base M2 plugins and one codehaus plugin
> 3. plugin : empty, so can be deleted
> 4. maven-torque-plugin : only metadata files, so can be deleted
> 5. maven-xdoclet2-plugin : empty, so can be deleted
> To avoid confusion for novice M2 users, I think it's best to:
> a. delete the unnecessary folders (3, 4, 5)
> b. document in the website that
> "http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/plugins";
> should be verified for the latest versions of M2 plugins instead of
> "http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2";.
> c. add a remark to state that
> "http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/maven-plugins";
> is only for M1 and should be ignored for M2.
