As every ASF project, Apache Maven regularly reports to the Apache board about
the status of the project. Our latest report (January 21st, 2014) is shown
below:
Apache Maven is a widely-used project build tool, targeting mainly Java
development. Apache Maven promotes the use of dependencies via a
standardized coordinate system, binary plugins, and a standard build
lifecycle.
* General Information
* Work on plugin releases to define common 2.2.1 minimum Maven version
and Java 5 requirements continues: we created an automated report [1]
that shows 33 plugins are ready from 49. Once finished, we expect to
start 3.x line of plugins with Maven 3 and Java 6 minimum requirements.
* There was a contest to create a new Maven logo and create a mascot:
the winning logo is [2] and the winning mascot (officially christened)
"The Maven Owl" [3]. Work is now in progress to integrate it to the Maven
site.
* We're studying Jira migration from Codehaus to Apache for better end-users
consistency, since we've got feedback about users lost when requiring to
create a Jira account at Codehaus.
* Compliance with ASF source header policy
We enabled rat check on every build in maven-parent POM 25 to ensure full
compliance from now on.
Issue closed: this report is the last one with status on this topic.
