 I'm -1 on the tag and publish each quarter.

Can you tell us why you are against a quarterly archive?

Cheers,

Wim

 still some improvements possible. :)

Hi,

Depending on snapshots is not a good idea, because snapshots are volatile by definition. You'd rather depend on a stabler repository that doesn't risk to change that often.
However, I don't know what can be considered as a stable URL for Nebula... Apparently, there's nothing like that yet.

What I'd advise is the following structure:
* http://download.eclipse.org/technology/
** snapshots/ (where the latest CI build would be published, for testing purpose)
** releases/ (home of releases)
*** 1.0.0/  (named releases)
*** 1.0.1/
*** 1.1.0/
*** ....
*** latest/ (would be either a copy of the latest release repo, or some composite files pointing to the latest release repo).

Then consumers could reference a static site http://download.eclipse.org/technology/nebula/release/1.0.1 in their build. Content wouldn't change so they wouldn't be broken. However, with such URLs, customers have to monitor project activity and manually update the .target/products/pom files to get a new version.
