[technology-pmc] Unblocking IAM

[Abel Muiño <amuino@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello PMC,

Currently, the Eclipse Technology Project Eclipse IAM is blocked by the IP problems affecting Plexus, one of the required dependencies for the Maven Embedder (used by IAM).

In order to move forward, I would like to evaluate creating a pre-req (non-exempt, probably) on the maven embedder as packaged by the q4e project (http://q4e.googlecode.com).

Can the PMC advice us on how to proceed?

N.B.: We are aware that this is not the best option (IAM will be in a position similar to Subversive) but will be "good enough" for the time being (and better than the current status), allowing IAM to publish builds from eclipse.org.
