1. Re: 4.2.0.Final "modeshape-distribution" artifact
hchiorean Mar 16, 2015 2:39 AM (in response to amberg)This is intentional, as we've corrected a number of artifacts which have no business being deployed to Maven central. In this particular case, the distribution module is used only to build our binary distributions, nothing else. How/why are you using this artifact ?

2. Re: 4.2.0.Final "modeshape-distribution" artifact
amberg Mar 16, 2015 6:03 AM (in response to hchiorean)The plan was to automate the creation of a local & temporary Wildfly + Modeshape installation in a project. We use this quite often in other projects where we for example want to run Arquillian test against a local Wildfly container. Its is quite convenient to be able to automate this process using a profile in Maven. It also helps us to enforce that all developers are developing using identical container configurations. It's a bit old school to have to tell the developer that she/he has to download and install the container before they can build the project.

3. Re: 4.2.0.Final "modeshape-distribution" artifact
hchiorean Mar 16, 2015 8:45 AM (in response to amberg)That's fine, but as I mentioned earlier the modeshape-distribution Maven module is an internal module which we're only using to build our zip artifacts & generate Javadocs. It is not something client-facing and the logic in that POM is specific to our build environment.
We do have BOMs and other modules which are intended to be public and therefore available in Maven Central.

amberg Mar 16, 2015 2:16 PM (in response to hchiorean)And it is the ZIP artifacts I want to fetch. A project using WildFly for example can use the maven-dependency-plugin and
<groupId>org.wildfly</groupId> <artifactId>wildfly-dist</artifactId> <version>${version.wildfly}</version> <type>zip</type>
to fetch (and unpack) WildFly. It would have been nice to be able to fetch and install "jboss-wf8-dist.zip" to a local WildFly using the same kind of logic.

5. Re: 4.2.0.Final "modeshape-distribution" artifact
hchiorean Mar 17, 2015 2:47 AM (in response to amberg)In the case of the jboss-wf8-dist classifier, I agree that this artifact should be deployed (available) in Maven - but not the other artifacts that are produced by the distribution module.
This is something which we'll fix for 4.3.

amberg Mar 17, 2015 9:19 AM (in response to hchiorean)Excellent! Looking forward to a future release where the public jboss-wf8-dist classifier is reintroduced.
