Who is the maintainer of the fop:fop project found on repo1.maven.org?

[Markus KARG]

I need to find out the maintainer of the fop:fop project on repo1.maven.org.





As there is no JIRA group for that project, I also cannot file a JIRA issue.





This has to be fixed ASAP to make those projects work!




Thanks
Markus

There is a severe bug in the published JAR that prevents referencing this project from own projects. Please either fix the bug or tell me the name of the maintainer so I can ask him to fix it! It's all about the fop plugin (groupId: fop, artifactId: fop). The current version is 0.20.5. That version's pom.xml found on repo1.maven.org contains a dependency on "xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar" (xml-apis, version 1.0.b2), which should result in "Class-Path: xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar" to be written in the main artifact "fop-0.20.5.jar". Actually the "fop-0.20.5.jar" found on repo1.maven.org doesn't contain "Class-Path: xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar" but "Class-Path: xml-apis.jar" which results in a class path resolving problem at run time in any project using FOP 0.20.5! The same problem not only happens with "xml-apis" but with nearly ALL dependencies of fop-0.20.5 (e. g. also with "batik")! The fix is quite easy, just modify the Class-Path: entry or do "mvn clean deploy" to push another copy to repo1.maven.org. The problem is really urgent since we need this and we do not have write access to that folder on of repo1.maven.org.
