Reactor lifecycles seems like a natural way to solve the issues around reactor builds.
They look neat.
This is just a little aside, but I think we have much more to do WRT refactoring the Maven lifecycle than simply adding a reactor context. However, I also think it's important to think about the reactor context as a feature for 4.0.0 modelVersions.
I'd prefer to avoid a "quick fix", which reactor lifecycles seems to avoid. But at the same time something needs to be done relatively soon to fix some of the issues that are banking up. If that means leaving out features like <type> I'd prefer to do that than hold up releasing something and when the use cases arise for these new features to add the functionality in then. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
