---------------------------------------
Josh, is it OK with you if we close this issue now?
> site:deploy unable to utilize UNC paths
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: MSITE-318
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-318
> Project: Maven 2.x Site Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: site:deploy
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-6
> Environment: Windows XP
> Reporter: Josh Peters
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently under windows, a UNC path (even one represented as a file:// URL)
> cannot be written to. There seems to be something in the guts of Ant and
> Maven that doesn't understand how to treat UNC paths as valid paths.
> In an effort to avoid the "wontfix" status: mapping the UNC path as a network
> drive is effective but terribly kludgey as a long-term solution. Different
> developers in an organization _may_ have drives already mapped to something
> else. Given a vanilla Windows network, UNC paths may be the best choice for
> deploying sites.
> Leaving this as a minor bug since it mainly affects internal projects of an
> organization, but it is an important one as it can keep folks from adopting
> Maven for use in corporate environments.
