Re: [cbi-dev] An "Eclipse central repository"
|
This won't work because P2 (and OSGi in general) use dependency version
ranges almost exclusively, where vast majority of Maven projects use
specific dependency versions. Single P2 repository will result in
virtually unpredictable installation and/or build results as new
versions are deployed to the repository.

Hi again,
What makes Maven great is that everything is available through a "Maven
central repository". It is pretty easy to find a dependency.
What about setting up an "Eclipse central repository" where all releases
of all project could push their bits?
It would ensure that Eclipse.org keeps an archive of everything that has
been produced, and it would be a good entry point for most Eclipse
consumers. It is "just" a step to add to the release process: "When
releasing a project, you have to ask your new release repositories to be
merged into the central repository".
