[postgis-users] looking for a public well known maven repository for postgis-jdbc 2.1 and later on versions

[Shane StClair]

I just submitted a patch [1] to generate javadoc and source jars as part of
the postgis-jdbc build. Otherwise, the existing pom meets the Maven Central
sync requirements [2].

There are two options for getting up to date postgis-jdbc releases into
Maven Central. The first would be for Maven Central deployment to become
part of the postgis release process. After the initial setup the Maven
Central publishing process isn't terribly painful, but it would require a
postgis developer to assume responsibility for the Maven Central submission
and for postgis-jdbc to get special consideration during releases [3] [4].

The other option would be to have the community manually upload to Maven
Central [5]. This is definitely not the ideal situation, but if Maven
Central uploads are out of scope for the postgis devs right now it would
allow us to get updated versions into the central repo. A blessing from the
postgis devs would help in this second case.

Thanks,
Shane
