Hi,

I was pretty confused by the state of the plugin process, and just wanted to check: - should the "remote resources" plugin be in the main configuration, rather than profiles? It makes sense for all plugin deployments to have that, and is less error prone

Once I'm done testing it and there are three more releases I'll be doing this weekend.

- if not, should the release plugin configure itself to add that profile?

The remote resources setup should be pushed up for anyone at apache doing releases. It seems to be working from Joakim's account, for the Geronimo releases and the few that I've done so far.

- what is left to do to make the staging usable?

Test the copying tool which I've done for file:/// based urls. There is a bug in Wagon which prevents it from working on scp:// based urls. Joakim will look at that later.

- is any docs started on this somewhere?


It's really just setting up your profile, using it and it will be passed along in the release plugin when it picks up the active profiles:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/release/trunk/releasing.apt

The remote resources stuff works fine, the staging has only been tried once. I would stick with just using the remote resources profile with a standard release for your release and when I've tested the staging using Tom's copier I'll document that for the standard process incorporating John's release report.

Using the "remoteResources" profile with what you're used to will work for your plugin release.

Jason.

Thanks,
Brett
