Benoit Decherf updated CONTINUUM-1633:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: continuum_release2.patch

Here is my alternative.
There are several changes:
  - I add the possibility to make the release from a previous tag/revision (and create a branch from this tag to create the release).
  - It is now possible to release all/several projects of a group. (The projects doesn't need to have the same parent).
  - The release is done by an external maven process.
  - Profiles are supported.

This still not support the mutliple project. I will work to add it.

This is what I like to have in continuum. Please give me some feedback about it.

> release using mvn release plugin

> I think that the release process should use the release plugin rather than the maven-release classes directly.
> Actually, it's possible to choose the maven installation to execute the compilation in continuum, BUT the maven version used to release a project can't be changed because of the compilation/runtime dependency of continuum-release.
> Also, if I configure the release plugin in pom.xml (for default values or to use a specific version of the plugin), this is ignored by continuum.
> What do you think about externalize the release execution using external command line as you do to execute scheduled goals ? Is there any blocker issue so that it's not possible ?
