Al Sutton commented on MEV-570:
-------------------------------
I'm not familiar with the Maven codebase, but haven't you got (or couldn't you
add) add a redirect from one groupId to another?
For example, is it not possible to create a file (e.g. .maven_groupId_alias) in
/freemarker in the repository which contains;
groupId: org.freemarker
which would tell any clients trying to connect to the /freemarker groupId that
it should use the org.freemarker groupId?
> groupId org.freemarker and freemarker refer to the same product

> Both org.freemarker and freemarker refer to the same product (the freemarker
> template library), having two different groupIDs for the same product creates
> the possibility for multiple jars of the same product to be included in a
> compile and run classpath.
> This has been seen in Struts2 where we had 2.3.4 from groupID freemarker from
> a dependancy, and 2.3.11 from org.freemarker in our pom.
> One needs to go and a redirect put in place inorder to ensure consistency.
