Greetings Maven Central Publisher,
We are reaching out to you because you are registered as a publisher with Maven Central’s oss.sonatype.org or s01.oss.sonatype.org services. Although there are no immediate changes to how you publish, we want to inform you of a number of upcoming changes to your account. Currently, you manage your account credentials through issues.sonatype.org. On Tuesday the 12th of March, we are moving account management to a temporary service located at https://account.oss.sonatype.org/realms/central-ossrh/account/. This should hopefully involve minimal disruption for our publishers. You will still use the same username and password to log in to the OSSRH instance, and should only need to interact with the new account management service when you wish to change or reset your account credentials.
Also, you will likely see information directed at new OSSRH publishers registering via central.sonatype.com (documented here -- https://central.sonatype.org/register/legacy/). While this does not impact you at the moment, you should be aware that we are moving account management to a unified system across the Central Publishing Portal and OSSRH. We will communicate again before that takes place, to ensure that our users have a clear understanding of where and how they will be able to manage their accounts.
You may also have been impacted by the retirement of issues.sonatype.org which you previously used for signing up for new namespaces and getting publishing support. We have transitioned to using the same workflow system used for our paid products. To generate a ticket, you can email central...@sonatype.com. We acknowledge that, in doing so, you have lost some of the self-service functionality for requesting and being granted publisher access to new namespaces. We are working on restoring that functionality on central.sonatype.com. The migration to a unified account management system we mentioned previously enables us to build integrations between the two services later in the year, such as displaying a user’s complete list
of registered namespaces and allowing self-service migration to the Publisher Portal.
Thank you,
The Central Team |
