Re: [ee4j-pmc] Migration to Jakarta installation of Nexus

[Terry Yanko <tyanko@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David, 

Hope you had a great weekend! https://jakarta.oss.sonatype.org is up and ready for testing. At present, everyone on the migrate tab of the spreadsheet you provided should be all set for testing the new service. They should be able to use their existing credentials and simply swap URLs to use the new endpoint. Please note that during the testing period sync to Central will be disabled and any releases made to https://jakarta.oss.sonatype.org are subject to removal as we tweak the service configuration on our end. We are still targeting Thursday 1/9 for the final cutover. Please let me know if you have any questions. 

Best, 

Terry

All,

We've struggled with the 30 day expiration of oss.sonatype.org.  Sonatype has very generously agreed to dedicate an instance of Nexus Pro specifically to us and our Jakarta efforts that will give us a 60 day retention policy.

Here's the information I have:

- Thursday, January 2nd new instance available for testing at jakarta.oss.sonatype.org

- Monday, January 6th cutover -- publishing to Central from oss.sonatype.org will cease to work

- Users in the "Migrate" tab will be migrated.  Users in the "Hold" tab are welcome to opt-in (there will be another batch)

I haven't confirmed, but I assume all users will still work as-is, same password, just with jakarta.oss.sonatype.org instead of oss.sonatype.org.

In that regard the migration should be fairly simple.  However we still need a volunteer to update the EE4J parent pom.  Any takers?

Terry, is there a sneaky way we could do that now if someone was motivated?  Maybe publish it and just not use it till January?
