generic is good, provided
-we can have a conceptual model that is consistent across all SCM
systems.
-we can deal with extensibility through antlibs. I suppose you'd
have
a new type,
SCMbackend that every backend would implement; declaring a new
backend would
let you register it.
Question: could you just get away with some mixin import lib that
declared the appropriate macros for the appropriate platform?
Well, it seems that the maven people have such a thing to some extend
already. This new antlib tasks could use that support.
Hey, maybe maven-scm could host and provide the antlib for these tasks.
Or maybe they are willing to move it to our sandbox.
I still think, it will be a good idea if we continue to get involved to
help define the overall picture from the ANT perspective.
With my Maven SCM Committer hat on I would not object to hosting the Ant
tasks under Maven SCM if that's what you guys feel is right. Your call
but I'm +1 to having them under Maven SCM.
I'm +1 too
At the end of the day we would have to decide if we would like to
provide these libraries as part of our release, provide some 3rd party
goodies that you can download as part of ANT, or just tell people about
their existence somewhere.
