Hi. Answers right after the questions. On 1/22/07, Martijn Dashorst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Our current Wicket release distribution consists of several zip files, one for each project. Each zip contains all the dependencies for that particular project, including the wicket dependencies. This means that when you download wicket-1.2.4.zip, wicket-spring-1.2.4.zip and wicket-spring-annot-1.2.4.zip, you will download wicket-1.2.4.jar 3 times, wicket-spring-1.2.4 2 times and wicket-spring-annot-1.2.4.jar 1 time. Also, each release contains the generated website. Now the only two websites that are actually worth something are: - the main wicket distribution, as it contains the examples. - the wicket-quickstart distribution, as it contains the guides for the 3 ide's Recently, Eelco asked the question, what will improve our release process? Part of the improvement could come from streamlining the contents of our zips. Some options I see (I'm not +1, just stating them): - split zips into source and binary distributions, going with the default maven assemblies
+ 1 default maven assemblies. - remove site docs from distributions, only include a readme, the
docs can be found online (http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKETxSITE)
+1 - create one wicket-all zip with all wicket jars +1 if it doesn't hurt to much to make it work. - add source-jar/javadoc-jar to the zips (currently left out) -1 javadoc only. Questions:
- do we need
to support ant builds for the source distribution?
- do we need to supply all dependencies in the source and/or binary distribution
-1 - do we like our current distributions, so no change is necessary? could be improved as stated. WDYT?
