[Biojava-dev] maven artifacts

Folks,

Picking up from a thread at the tail end of September about current status, it was mentioned that all successful builds get dumped to a biojava maven repository. That's fine and dandy, but is there any chance that the procedure could tag the artifacts with something more permanent than the current 3.0-SNAPSHOT moniker?

I ask because we have some code that we would like to punt out to the general public as an early alpha/beta release of the Jensembl API. However, I can't put it onto maven central unless it can be made to rely on something concrete and permanent. If, every time I go back to the biojava repository, what has the same name as the artifact that I built against is now something completely different then I'm stuffed.

There was mention in September of proposals for publishing (or perhaps I misread that bit). What is the current status and are there plans to punt out a frozen reference version that we can code against whilst the nuts and bolts continue to get refined in the subversion/git/<<insert favourite scm here>> repositories?

Later,

Andy
