The last time I
spoke to Graham Charters, he told me that he intended to
withdraw the proposal. I guess he just never got around to doing
so. If Gunnar is interested in rebooting it, that would be
great!
At face value I don't see
any issue approving these prereq dependencies. Aside from
the bnd dependancy I imagine most of these same prereqs are
required by tycho. But ...
I am wondering on the level
of activity and health of the EBR project. It sounds like
at least you have been investigating and pushing forward the
project. Is there much other activity to report? I was
getting to the point where I was going to ask the project
leadership if the project should be considered for
termination.

Subject: [rt-pmc] EBR Maven Plug-in
Dependencies
Sent by: rt-pmc-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx
Greetings RT PMC colleagues,
I’ve written a Maven plug-in which will help the EBR project
and should be of potential interest for Orbit too. In order
to satisfy the requirements of the Eclipse.org IP process we
need to have a discussion with regards to the dependencies
of this plug-in.
As far as I understand it the following is true:
- Maven must be download and installed separately by the
user in order for this plug-in to work.
- The dependencies of this plug-in are downloaded and
installed by Maven.
- Neither I nor the EBR project should have any intention of
distributing any of the dependencies.
- The EBR project may publish a release of the plug-in into
repo.eclipse.org and/or Maven central. Such a release will
not contain any dependencies.
Therefore, I’m seeking to get the dependencies on Maven as
well as other Maven plug-ins I use approved as prerequisite
dependencies (according to [1]). In order to do this, we
(the PMC) must discuss and approve this.
Here is the list of intended PREREQ dependencies:
- maven-core (org.apache.maven), version 3.0
- maven-plugin-api (org.apache.maven), version 3.0
- maven-plugin-annotations<
(org.apache.maven.plugin-tools), version 3.2
- plexus-utils (org.codehaus.plexus), version 3.0.7
- commons-lang3 (org.apache.commons), version 3.1
- commons-io (org.apache.commons), version 1.3.2
- maven-bundle-plugin (org.apache.felix), version 2.4.0
- bndlib (biz.aQute.bnd), version 2.1.0
- mojo-executor (org.twdata.maven), version 2.2.0
FWIW, I also need the following WORKS-WITH dependency (for
testing only):
- junit, version 4.11 (test only; WORKSWITH)
Any feedback is appreciated!
