Are you suggesting that our CI server performs a 'mvn release' nightly? From the documentation that you linked to it seems like this is not intended to be an automated process, as there are several steps that prompt the user for information. I assume that you can provide this information on the command line?
Regardless of this issue, what is standard practice in this situation? We want a CI server to use maven to produce regular versioned builds of a project that is a dependency of other projects. Is there something about this that doesn't fin in the maven philosophy? Thanks.
