Hi, Sorry for butting in - but how about adding some (willing) people as administrators of *parts* of the ibiblio repo? I for example wouldn't mind being responsible for managing, say, the jboss section. This means that the admin only has permissions for that particular directory of the ibiblio repo and he/she need only to concentrate on that (new versions, POM fixes).
We can thus divide the workload between the community and let the core Maven team concentrate more on the core product. In addition, if every admin is responsible for a group of products he/she are using anyway, I'm sure the quality of the POMs and their maintenance will go up as well. What do you think?
