Finally..

After a few weeks of preparation, we have released Archiva 1.0 Beta 1 (yay! to the Maven Archiva team).  This was the first release I’ve ever done, and what can I say.. it was fun!

There were a lot of preparation on my part (had to generate my key pair and have them signed, then setup configuration for the release, etc.). But thanks to everyone’s help and participation, the release went smoothly and was a success.

The only thing that needs to be improved on was the upload of the jars to the repositories. I think it took me a good three hours or so to deploy them.. and trust me, there were a lot of jars! The problem probably was in the net connection, so my advice is if you’re going to do a release..make sure you’re connection is really fast.

Btw, you can take a peek at Archiva here:
maven.apache.org/archiva/

That’s all folks! ‘Til the next release again.

P.S.
Special thanks to Wendy for her notes and Brett for his real-time help desk =)
