Re: [ee4j-pmc] Migration to Jakarta installation of Nexus

[Terry Yanko <tyanko@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David, 

I apologize, but with the holidays and a number of folks out on vacation it doesn't look like we'll have the testing instance up today. Likely a more realistic schedule would be Monday for having the test instance ready, and the cutover actually taking place later in the week on Thursday. Would that work for you? 

Best, 

Terry

All,

We've struggled with the 30 day expiration of oss.sonatype.org.  Sonatype has very generously agreed to dedicate an instance of Nexus Pro specifically to us and our Jakarta efforts that will give us a 60 day retention policy.

Here's the information I have:

- Thursday, January 2nd new instance available for testing at jakarta.oss.sonatype.org

- Monday, January 6th cutover -- publishing to Central from oss.sonatype.org will cease to work

- Users in the "Migrate" tab will be migrated.  Users in the "Hold" tab are welcome to opt-in (there will be another batch)

I haven't confirmed, but I assume all users will still work as-is, same password, just with jakarta.oss.sonatype.org instead of oss.sonatype.org.

In that regard the migration should be fairly simple.  However we still need a volunteer to update the EE4J parent pom.  Any takers?

Terry, is there a sneaky way we could do that now if someone was motivated?  Maybe publish it and just not use it till January?
