i've talked at length about this before (IIRC with brett and others) and done quite a bit of thinking. it is a much more general issue than just maven. one signature isn't good enough. it would be good for maven to lead the way but IMO we need a comprehensive solution for all apache releases. - robert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
