Elliotte Rusty Harold updated MSHARED-1451:
-------------------------------------------
Labels: documentation (was: )
> Describe archive format in active voice
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: MSHARED-1451
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-1451
> Project: Maven Shared Components
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: maven-archiver
> Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold
> Priority: Major
> Labels: documentation
>
> The introduction page says, "The Maven Archiver is mainly used by plugins to
> handle packaging." but i doesn't seem to ever say what the format of an
> archive *is*. Is it a JAR? a zip? .tar.gz? something else? Any of the above
> dependiing on parameters?
> We should say something like, "Plugins use the Maven archiver to package
> compiled .class files into a JAR file." Of course, that language might not be
> correct since I don't know what format we use.
