I know that there is always possible to add more documentation, but I kindly
ask you to appreciate that most people within the open source world do this
without getting payed. If you've found some documentation that you think is
missing, dig in and figure out how it works and submit that (docs or
whatever) as a patch. If you don't know where to submit please ask, we'll
point you in the right direction.

I appreciate all the great work that you guys do and I know that it is time 
volunteered one way or another.
The reference is on the right track. It is too specific to their project and 
appears to be a bit short on details.
It would be nice to have something that has a bit of the Maven Upload to 
Central flavour but addressing the problem that the GEOT paper addresses.


So why don't you add that? If you feel you're getting some value from Maven 
then take a few hours and save all the users after you some pain.

If I was not so far up to me ears in alligators and customers who are becoming alligators, I might take a shot at it.
I still have to figure out how to do it and do it once.

You are putting me on the spot with the best argument known to man "Put up or shut up".
I guess I do not have much choice now but to write something.

Eh, not sure what you mean. Are you asking where in the Maven docs it is
stated that the pom should be correct? I think that would go without
saying,
don't you? A default pom is most likely never correct, as think Jason said
earlier in this thread.



Cute but not likely the issue. I think we can take correct POMs as a given

Where does the documentation describe how to make a POM for a 3rd party
module and why that is worth doing.
What is the minimum info required? What are the optional things that you
should try to add for a module that is open source and for one that is not?

Nexus is good, but it can't do magic. It will not solve the fact that

are no poms/metadata and therefore no dependencies info. You still need

fix that yourself.
I'm not a fan of just uploading the jars and using the default pom (no
dependency info) as it will break Maven's dependency management.
Artifacts
like this will make Maven "look bad" and take away some of the pleasure
working with Maven.

Please invest in creating correct poms. If the source/project is open
source
it shouldn't be too hard.




Where is that documented/mentioned in the Maven docs?

I can recommend that you install the Nexus repository.
You can easily upload libraries like Language Tool and it will find it
right away.

It has a lot of other benefits as well and makes using Maven much more
pleasant.

It can proxy all the other repos that you use and that makes you
workstation setup very easy - just configure your Nexus as a mirror of
all
other repositories. Maven will only ask one place. You can add a new
foreign
repository to your Nexus configuration and immediately it available to
all
your developers.

The Community version is free and is very easy to install.

I have only had mine running for the past few months and wish I had
done
it
2 years ago.

Hi, I am using a library called Language tool. Since it does not have
a
maven repository anywhere, I had to make a local one for it.

Unfortunately, every time I execute any maven task, Maven will check
all
the
repositories for updated copies. This process can be rather slow and
I'd
rather maven just skipped it for these locally added libraries. This
is
what
it spits out. How do I stop it?
