HowToReleaseJDO.html says at step 9 to "Build the distribution". I'm
trying to figure out how to do that now. Note that issuing "maven
help" results in lots of exceptions containing the message
Caught exception evaluating: basedir.substring(0,
basedir.lastIndexOf('jdo')). Reason:
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range:
-1
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
I'd like to just sign the api jar & then release it without "building
the distribution", but I need Craig to confirm that that's ok. Craig?
