Re: [jetty-dev] 7.2.2 and some other questions
Okay, just wanted to be sure I was understanding things correctly. For what it's worth, I think the removal of the bz2, source, and javadoc distro files is just fine. As a point of reference, for the projects I work on, we don't do source distributions any more either. We just tell people the SVN command to run to get it all.

Just so I'm clear, you mean you wouldn't do an aggregate source bundle but
would still have the source artifacts (so that things like Eclipse can still
display the source when you open types/implementations)?


http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/jetty/jetty-distribution/7.2.1.v20101111/jetty-distribution-7.2.1.v20101111-src.zip

That is the specific artifact I am talking about doing away with....I
added it back into the build a release to three ago and I question
that now.  The per artifact source artifacts and javadoc artifacts are
required and not about to be done away with.

the specific javadoc bit I am talking about getting rid of is the one
under the javadoc directory of the distribution pulled from that same
location above....its a pain to generate for that distribution and I
question its value anymore since the proxy approach pointing to
eclipse.org seemed to be working fine for folks.

cheers!

how are folks feeling about pulling a 7.2.2 release soon?

Also, a while back I added in a source distribution and a generated
version of the javadocs that could go into the binary distribution...A
side effect of this is the release process takes astronomically longer
to run because of some issues in the javadoc plugin.  Do you all see
value in keeping this in the distribution or could we go back to the
previous approach of proxying to the published documentation?

Lastly, I am thinking about not bothering with .bz2 formats in our
binary distributions...would it break anyones hearts to do away with
it?  I get a little fearful of shoving TOO much stuff into maven
central and that and dropping the source distro (who uses those
anymore).  I am thinking this would be fine because I am not aware of
anyone asking us for source distro's or the javadoc in the distro
while it was missing.  Source wise we have great tooling that puts the
source with the artifact, the javadoc with the artifact and anyone
that needs to build jetty can just pull from SVN like the rest of the
known universe since a source bundle at the distribution lvl is
effectly just an svn export anyway.

thoughts?
