> > Alternatively, if the build time is considered a problem, why not just excluding it completely? It is not part of the JAR file specification as far as I can see (I don't see it in the [list of attribute names](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/23/docs/api/java.base/java/util/jar/Attributes.Name.html)). If we fix a value in a `pom.xml`, peoples will forget to update it. I think it is better to not provide an information than providing a wrong value. > > I agree that it would be better to not include that information if it's not provided. Is there any easy way to do that ? I agree too here if we could have another solution. I know this is as is for long time now but I have always found it weird to have a sort of totally random value :) here to satisfy the reproducible build requirements. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
