That<br class="">makes it pretty difficult to use, given that everyone uses maven these<br class="">days and expects everything useful to be in Maven Central.<br class=""><br class="">So, how about pulling together to make a release? If there is<br class="">interest, I can get permissions from Maven Central to publish<br class="">releases. And, I would like to create an Apache-style meritocracy.<br class="">People who are doing the work get the right to commit, and review each<br class="">other's commits. What we all get out of it is regular, high-quality<br class="">releases, incorporating everyone's bug fixes and added features.<br class=""><br class="">What do you all think?<br class=""><br class="">(Please feel free to forward this message to folks developing & using<br class="">olap4j who are not on this list.)<br class=""><br class="">Julian<br class=""><br class="">[1] <a href="https://github.com/olap4j/olap4j/network" class="">https://github.com/olap4j/olap4j/network</a><br class=""><br class="">[2] <a href="http://search.maven.org/" class="">http://search.maven.org/</a><br class=""></div></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
