We're not going to add the jar to SCM.... there's many reasons, and I could
go into depth about all of them (I've tried to enumerate some already), but
again... that's not the question. We're not going to do that. and I've
already stated that. I appreciate the advice... really, I do... but we're
not going to do that. Responding with that suggestion does not help answer
the question asked.
The purpose of this thread is to figure out the best way to create a jar
during the build without attaching. That's the requirement. That's the goal.
