Re: [dash-dev] Maven Nexus server

I would not use maven->p2 conversion functionality provided by nexus
extension plugins for any production purposes. This was part of research
project, which I do not believe was fully implemented due to
time/resources constraints (I was not directly involved, so may be wrong
about the reasons). Nexus p2 repository proxy functionality is the only
nexus/p2 functionality that is production ready, as far as I know.

Personally, with CBI using maven.  I'd actually recommend that Nexus
server fall under that group. Especially with Nexus 2.1.x able to
support p2 repositories, and also make existing maven repositories p2
enabled.   So items could technically just be deployed to it and the
basic p2 metadata is generated as needed.

We've run out of disk space again - I'm trying to clean it up, but
there's something on the filesystem which appears to be taking a lot

and generating errors in the log files, probably due to lack of space.
So I've cleaned out some cruft, but I think it's likely to recur. The
performance of the virtual disk is horribly slow and although the
nexus jobs are set up to purge the trash and remove unused items, I
think that there's a number of people hitting http://maven.eclipse.org
for non-eclipse content.

There's also some data in /var which we can clean - there's a lot of
data in /var/messages, for example. However, the root password (was in
~admin/pw, now gone) seems to have gone walkabout - anyone know where
it went?

Finally, I'm concerned that the level of support (and management) that
we (as Dash) are able to provide doesn't fit the Eclipse organisation.
Given that we haven't succeeded in converting Eclipse to Maven hosting
- and the m4e tools never made it to production worthy status - I'm
wondering if we shouldn't shut the system down. Unfortunately, I don't
know where the repository is being used from hudson slaves, so I'm not
sure if that's even practical - or whether the repositories are being
used by others.

Thoughts?
