Hi Everyone,

I posted this in Bug 394792 [1] but thought I'd post here too.

I think the new Maven instance at Eclipse is about ready to go. I've been testing so far with the CBI project and released 2 plugins into the repo so far:

    - eclipse-cbi-plugin-1.0.0
    - eclipse-jarsigner-plugin-1.0.2

The new instance can be reached at: https://repo.eclipse.org/

We decided on this new URL so that the current maven.eclipse.org won't be affected while we setup.


At this point I'd like to invite any projects if interested to let me know and I can add the project to the new instance at https://repo.eclipse.org so you can try uploading your artifacts to the new Nexus instance.

The goal is to give each project 2 repos:

    - project-releases
    - project-snapshots

As well as a group "project" to group the 2 repos. This group will also be grouped by the top-level group "eclipse".

This means consumers need to add a repository URL per eclipse project they want to get artifacts from.

What's the reason for this hard to consume layout ?

Could you add a repository (group) combining the artifacts from all Eclipse projects, e.g. "releases" and "snapshots".

What's the retention time for snapshot repositories ?
