Any chance of getting it onto http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/springframework quite soon?

Yeah, I simply changed my version number from 2.5.1 to 2.5.2 in pom, but it turned out there is no 2.5.2 in maven repo yet:(

The idea was to add this to your pom.xml under repositories to get the springframework from there.

Seems a bit weird to suddenly get Spring from a completely different repository...

Thanks for the link, but no thanks. Spring 2.5.1 was released on Jan 9th and the maven artifacts appeared in repo1 on Jan 9th. The announcement for the 2.5.2 release came on Mar 3rd (changelog (http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.5.2/changelog.txt) says release date is Feb 29th), and still no maven artifacts. All people are pointing out is that a lot of us rely on maven artifacts and they are not there yet in their regular place. That's all.

If you're waiting on the artifacts from the Maven central repo, you may be waiting a while. From the Spring side, we've published our artifacts to an internal repository that the Maven team syncs against. For some reason, the Maven team hasn't synced it yet (and hasn't for a couple of weeks it appears). We don't really have any control over this, but we've emailed the Maven team to get it sorted.

If you are desperate for 2.5.2 artifacts, I whole heartedly recommend the suggestion earlier to use the Amazon S3 release repo. As you can see from this (http://blog.springsource.com/main/2007/09/18/maven-artifacts-2/) blog post, we already repositories like this for milestones and snapshots. The post doesn't mention a release repository, but it follows the same pattern as the other two.

If there is no reply from the maven team by this afternoon (GMT), I'll be blogging to recommend this particular course of action.

The jars are available in the Maven Repo now. Thanks Ben.

I just noticed that myself. Have fun with them :)

trying the url: springide.org/updatesite (silly forum won't let me post the full url)

I get the following xml back:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Error>
<Code>NoSuchKey</Code>
<Message>The specified key does not exist.</Message>
<Key>release/IDE</Key>

</Error>

Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?
