Re: going to Maven central
For the common practices to upload an artifact to Maven Central: http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-central-repository-upload.html I read that our Apache repo gets synchronized with Central so we hopefully only need to deploy it on our repo and it will automatically will get to Central. However I don't know if the http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-incubating-repository/ is considered external or not (it's said to be accepted as synced but if everything outside Central is considered external the answer is yes) though I wonder if that repo can stay inside the POM. Cheers.

As far as I know there some constraints we should respect to reach this, for example being independent from other external repos. What do you think? I am in favor of updating things to better follow Maven conventions and constraints. Can you say more specifically what needs changing? Do our POMs currently have dependencies to other external repos? -Marshall

Creating PEAR Files
I have a component I have created and need to create a PEAR in order to deploy it to some other people. This component basically wraps a Java component. I want to deploy the Java component's JAR file with the PEAR so I put the JAR in the lib directory of my UIMA component. I have added the UIMA nature (using eclipse) like the directions say. When I generate the PEAR file it doesn't include the JAR file. I can see the JAR file in the directory using Windows Explorer but I can't see the JAR file in the directory in Eclipse. How do I add a JAR file to PEAR? Do I need to use Eclipse somehow to add the JAR to the lib directory rather than Windows Explorer?

Yep, you can either use http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository/ or the new Nexus repository server at https://repository.apache.org/. The repository server is quite handy for Maven-based projects, but starting to use it requires some work. However I don't know if the http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-incubating-repository/ is considered external or not (it's said to be accepted as synced but if everything outside Central is considered external the answer is yes) though I wonder if that repo can stay inside the POM. It's an external repository, but nowadays also incubating projects can deploy their releases to Maven central, so there shouldn't be much need to keep using m2-incubating-repository.

Re: Creating PEAR Files
Do you mean, the generated PEAR file, after you install it (which unzips it), does not have the Jar in the install-directory/lib/ ? That's exactly what I mean. The lib directory isn't created by the PEAR process. I can see the JAR file in the directory using Windows Explorer Which directory do you see it in?

Re: Creating PEAR Files
Have you tried refreshing the folder from within eclipse? (F5 keybinding)
