Re: [dash-dev] Maven wiki page and suggested repository layout

I added Sonatype repositories for a reason, as not everything for Tycho is currently at Maven Central (most things are).

The Codehaus snapshots is also needed to get the FindBugs version that is compatible with running with Maven 3 and Tycho.

Snapshots we should keep. The reason is that Snapshots repository are for development deployments. So those eclipse projects that need to deploy items to be used by other eclipse projects, can do so with snapshots. This is important for projects like jgit and egit that might depend on snapshots.

You can exclude the Snapshots repository from showing up in a Public URL so people would need and will need to add it specifically to their settings.xml.

I for one plan to use Snapshots to deploy some development versions of the PsychoPath Processor as it doesn't need P2 or Eclipse to even run, it works though in both environments.

I've started a Maven wiki page:

I've put some suggested repositories as per my previous mail on how we should organise nexus. It'd be great to get feedback on it. I also think we should probably drop most of the caches that exist on the maven.eclipse.org repository, like the 'google' and 'apache' forwards.

http://maven.eclipse.org/nexus/index.html#view-repositories

I propose to delete:

* 3rd party
* Apache snapshots
* Codehaus snapshots
* Google code
* Java.net - maven 2
* java.net - m1
* java.net - m1 M2 shadow
* Snapshots
* Sonatype repositories

This would leave:

* Releases
* Maven central
* Central m1 shadow

We might want to temporarily have a 'testing' repository so we can publish e.g. the trial work that Aaron has been doing.

I'm happy to set up the repositories as proposed if people are OK with this approach.
