Dear Maven Community, Today I asked the Glassfish community (= Java EE 5 Reference Implementation) to publish a j2ee.jar (= Java EE 5 APIs) on the Maven 2 central repository to allow coders to easily use the Java EE technology with Maven, without the need to download the complete SDK manually.
A few minutes later Bill SHANNON (= Java EE 5 Specification Lead) answered me that in fact "they" are working on this issue and he will try to speed up this process! :-) So soon the days will be gone where we all need to download the Java EE 5 SDK just to get the APIs. Soon it will be possible to just add a dependency on Sun's MVN2 repository to get the complete Java EE 5 APIs downloaded automatically when compiling an EJB3 project... :-) Have lots of fun! Markus
