Wasn't it already done with jjar and whatever the thingy in Maven is called?
Not really, it does more... and to some extent less (IIUC it does not yet use distributed repositories).
I know JJAR quite well, as I have been using it and proposing for quite some time, and I also had some patches ready, but then we decided to follow the Maven repository format not to duplicate repositories.
The developers of Ruper in the meantime have become Apache committers (two for Gump and one is coming in with JUDDI). The issue here is that Maven already has some code for this, and http://greebo.sourceforge.net/ is partecipating too.
If you want to call it "Incubating Ruper and have others join" it's ok for me, as my initial idea is to use Ruper as a starting codebase, and have others add stuff, but I didn't want to make this a prerequisite for a Repo project.
Maybe I should kick a release of jjar out :)
Maybe you should seriously think of putting JJAR on the table and join both the [EMAIL PROTECTED] and the Repo efforts :-)
So ok, the Repo project would start with Ruper, Greebo, Maven-fetch, and JJAR as starting points. I didn't count JJAR in as it has been still for so long.
