             Summary: Remove the binary tarball
                 Key: CASSJAVA-119
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSJAVA-119
             Project: Apache Cassandra Java driver
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Bret McGuire


Our primary deployment mechanism is via Maven but we still make a tarball 
available via the [Cassandra downloads 
page|https://cassandra.apache.org/_/download.html].  For the Java driver this 
was originally downloading the binary tarball but we recently noticed that the 
contents of said binary tarball were (a) less than useful and (b) not even 
consistent across versions.  As a result we've recently [changed this 
link|https://github.com/apache/cassandra-website/pull/304] to download the 
source tarball... meaning the binary tarball isn't really needed anymore.

 

We should remove the infrastructure in the Maven build supporting the binary 
tarball.  Basically if it isn't involved in creating the source tarball or 
artifacts for Maven Central we don't really need it.
