At work, we've got a project where we do exactly that. And a release includes publication to Nexus, a web site and a lot of other stuff, everything with relatively generic pom's. Compared to the almost unmaintainable Ant scripts with their thousands of lines that we used in the past, it is a lot better. In the special case of Apache, there are unfortunately some minor glitches. One is caused by the fact that we europeans are redirected to the european SVN mirror, rather than the original in the US. There is a workaround and I tend to forget it all the time. (I also do Apache releases rarely.) Another problem is the use of https URL's, although that should be handled in the parent POM nowadays, for both Maven 2 and 3. > [Side note; this is insane: > http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-encryption.html - I vomit > every time it's implied I should put passwords in the Maven settings > file] Totally agreed!
