[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-92?page=comments#action_70474 ] Brett Porter commented on MRM-92: ---------------------------------
Matthew, any progress on any of these? I'd like to see 3 separate issues created for these (the first 2 are already on our roadmap, but not in JIRA) > some random ideas about the repository manager > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRM-92 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-92 > Project: Maven Repository Manager > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Matthew Pocock > > Heard about the repo manager on #maven today. Sounds like a great idea. I am > "encouraging" the myGrid and OMII people here in the UK to use m2 as their > standard build platform. They are developing a semanticaly-aware directory > component - URIs (such as ws end-points) are annotated in the directory and > then clients can discover URIs of the type or with the properties that they > would like. It would help myGrid to contribute to maven synergystically if a > couple of bits of tech could be in-place in the repo manager. > * An RSS feed of all updates > * Full web-service interface to the repo manager > * M2 build-time support for attaching .owl or .rdf documents to artifacts, > providing a semantic description of the artifact, which could then be > imported into the directory. Perhaps part of the .owl / .rdf would be > auto-generated by plugins and part would be under > src/main/semanticDescription. > We have hired a team of 5 developers and a manager to re-write the myGrid > code - they have an explicit brief to do sw engineering rather than accademic > coding. I would expect that if they use m2 extensively, that they would > contribute to the project by submitting patches etc. like any good os > citizens. > Sorry about the management speak - got my project managers hat on today. > http://www.mygrid.org.uk/ > http://www.omii.ac.uk/ -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
