Hi,
My question: Is it possible for the Emf team to deploy the recently
released org.eclipse.emf.* libraries to the Central Maven Repository?
A lot of our Java projects are using Maven as a buildframework. For their
continuous integration needs, it must be possible to build these projects
by Maven outside of Eclipse.
Earlier versions of org.eclipse.emf.ecore already were deployed to Central
Maven Repository, see:
http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/emf/ecore/2.3.0-v2 00706262000
Because of the growing success of Emf we probably we will use future
versions also, it would be nice if the deployment of the Emf libraries to
the Central Maven Repository could get a place in the release process of
Emf.
Regards,
Johan.

That sounds very sensible.

It would be good to have a sensible strategy around this stuff. What
if, for example, a p2 repository could be automatically converted to a
maven repository and vice versa...

There are two Maven projects at Eclipse. I'll take the opportunity at
the Architecture Council meeting tomorrow to ask about support for Maven...

Johan,
There should be information in the minutes:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Architecture_Council/Meetings
E.g., the July 9 minutes are there already.
