Hi devs,
We've had a meeting with Marius, Thomas and myself and we brainstormed about what to
improve in our builds and we've come up with the following actions:
1- create twitter account for xwiki.org and tweet about releases (basically tweet links
to blog posts). Category: Release Process improvement. Who: Vincent Massol
2- Refactor distribution for installers to share more. Who: Thomas Mortagne
3- Check latest version of izpack. Who: Marius
4- Configure nexus to cache other repos → speed improvement. Who: Vincent Massol
5- Add definition xwiki remote repo to top level repos in github. Who: Vincent Massol
6- Define a location for passwords. Who: Thomas Mortagne
7- Publish with commons and rendering on central repo. Who: ?
Status update: We now have repos for XWiki on the sonatype infra:
"
Configuration has been prepared, now you can:
* Deploy snapshot artifacts into repository
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots
* Deploy release artifacts into the staging repository
https://oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2
* Promote staged artifacts into repository 'Releases'
* Download snapshot and release artifacts from group
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/public
* Download snapshot, release and staged artifacts from staging group
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/staging
"
The next step I'd like to do is find a way to push our 3.2M2 artifacts (for commons
and rendering) from our remote repo to the sonatype staging (for promotion to central).
Thanks

I've started to work on items 4 and 5 and will do 1 soon.
Also I've analyzed 7 and there's only 1 external reps not available in the Maven
Central Repo:
<groupId>org.reflections</groupId>
<artifactId>reflections</artifactId>
It should be pretty easy to submit it using
https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Repository/Uploading+3rd-party+Artifacts+…
To publish our artifacts to the central repo I propose to use Sonatype OSS service, see
https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Repository/Sonatype+OSS+Maven+Repository+…
Thanks
