Hello,
It seems that it's really a matter of convention, I don't see any technical
problem of having a groupId of org.clojure and an artifactId of clojure.
Please let me try to summarize this never ending discussion:
Currently the master build script is ant's build.xml.
It generates clojure.jar (*)
Currently the maven pom.xml defines
a groupId : org.clojure
an artifactId : clojure-lang
* The groupId is ok since the website site of clojure is indeed clojure.org
* The artifactId is ko since it implies the creation of jars such as
clojure-lang.jar (*)
Changing one or the other is just a matter of a one liner (or so) patch to
make both compliant and save lots of "brain overhead" for all newcomers (and
also members of the list if the newcomers come and ask the same question
again and again).
Rich, please have the final word:
* is it ok to live with different jar names
* if no, do we change pom.xml to name the artifactId clojure instead of
clojure-lang, or do we change the build.xml to generate clojure-lang.jar
instead of clojure.jar
(*) and derivatives with version numbers, and classifiers for slim and
source
