Jason van Zyl commented on MAVENUPLOAD-2734:
--------------------------------------------

The reason we are trying to get people to use the infrastructure we've setup is 
outlined here:

http://www.sonatype.com/people/2010/01/nexus-oss-ecosystem/

You and about a thousand other projects want to get their stuff into Maven 
Central and we want to make this easier as well as improving the quality of the 
content going into Maven Central.

Case in point is that you have no PGP signatures. We don't know who you are to 
be honest. Additionally, you haven't formatted any of your submissions as we 
request so it just makes it harder for us. We have tools for automating the 
checking and publishing of the standard upload bundles. It's even easier if you 
use a Nexus instance in some way, shape, or form because we know the artifacts 
have good POMs and addition information which ultimately makes it easier for 
consumers of the artifacts.

You also don't have any Javadoc JARs or Source JARs. While not completely 
mandatory a major release coming from Sun for such a widely used project makes 
it extremely painful for users trying to navigate in an IDE.

We recently worked with the Glassfish folks to clean up and get some artifacts 
into Maven Central. We're happy to do the same with you. Doing a major release 
for something so widely used as JAXB without signatures, javadocs and sources 
is honestly kind of crappy. All that happens is people blame Maven and so we're 
trying to nip these problems in the bud. Please work us to try and make the 
releases going to Maven Central of higher quality.
