Developer Tag in POM for submission to Maven Central

[Joel Weiser]

Hello,

I am a developer on a project that will begin using Sonatype to submit Maven built jar artifacts to Maven Central.

For submission of a POM file, does the developer tag require the "name" and "e-mail" tags to be present or is it possible to use only the organization and organizationUrl?  For example:

    <developers>

       <developer>

           <organization>Our organization</organization>

           <organizationUrl>https://ourorganization.org</organizationUrl>

       </developer>

   </developers>

If this is not allowed, may we provide a mailing list instead for the "name" and "e-mail" tags rather than specifying one or more individual developers?  For example:

    <developers>

        <developer>

            <name>Our Organization Team</name>

            <email>he...@ourorganization.com</email>

            <organization>Our Organization</organization>

            <organizationUrl>https://ourorganization.org</organizationUrl>

        </developer>

    </developers>

Thanks,

Joel

It's been a while since I've dug into how the validation works specific to the <developer> requirements.  I believe that we explicitly scan for <name> and <email>, but your second proposal, where you provide the organization's information in those elements is perfectly acceptable.

Thanks,

Joel
