[Java] Possible to publish updates to Maven Central

[Matthew Brady]

Hi,

I been using the Java S2 implementation for some of the more basic functionality (area, centroid, simplification) and have found it to be really useful so far. However, I noticed that the latest Java release from Q4 2022 isn't published to Maven Central, which makes it hard to consume some of the latest functionality added (S2ClosestEdgeQuery and S2IndexingHelper/s2region_term_indexer being two of the big ones).

Does anyone on this list have permission to publish an updated release to https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.geometry/s2-geometry? It looks like the current version is from August 2021. 

Thanks!

Any updates on this?

It would be really helpful to get Q4 2022 published to Maven Central.

I'd be open to taking a crack at this, but I'm assuming someone from Google has to do it?

Is there another location where the jar files are published?

I don't see why we'd be opposed to this but I'd ask on the issues page on github: https://github.com/google/s2-geometry-library-java/issues 

It looks like Github has support for this: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/publishing-packages/publishing-java-packages-with-maven  so if you put together a pull request to setup the workflow I imagine we'd accept it.
