Changes in this pull request (all to pom.xml)

• Update scala-maven-plugin, now has better support for Nexus
• Add some extra details suggested by Nexus, inherit from Nexus OSS parent
• Replace javadoc plugin execution for scaldoc plugin execution (it actually generates a javadoc.jar now!)

Suggested improvements

• Add developer info to pom

How I deployed it

I got a Maven repo setup on Nexus, https://issues.sonatype.org/browse/OSSRH-4770 it would be great for you guys to be able to deploy releases to it!

Setting up Maven for an automated release was a bit painful, here's what I did ...

Ensure you ~/.m2/settings.xml has the following

  <pluginGroups>
    <pluginGroup>org.sonatype.plugins</pluginGroup>
  </pluginGroups>

  <servers>
    <server>
      <id>sonatype-nexus-snapshots</id>
      <username>YOUR_SONATYPE_USERNAME</username>
      <password>YOUR_SONATYPE_PASSWORD</password>
    </server>
    <server>
      <id>sonatype-nexus-staging</id>
      <username>YOUR_SONATYPE_USERNAME</username>
      <password>YOUR_SONATYPE_PASSWORD</password>
    </server>
  </servers>

Ensure you have gpg installed and a key pair generate and published to a keyserver

• brew install gpg - If your on a Mac
• http://www.madboa.com/geek/gpg-quickstart/ - Ensure to do the keyserver part, I used keyserver.ubuntu.com

Add a snapshot for current release

• Ensure current version in pom.xml ends with -SNAPSHOT
• mvn clean deploy

Stage a release

• mvn release:clean
• mvn release:prepare
• mvn release:perform

Release it!

Via the nexus plugin ...

• mvn nexus:staging-list
• mvn nexus:staging-close
• mvn nexus:staging-promote

Or the web interface ...
