> devs,
> Currently calling 'mvn clean install' creates a ZIP, a TAR.GZ and a
> directory containing the same code. This leads to wasted disk space and a
> lot of wasted disk writes (something that a lot of folks using SSDs prefer
> to avoid).
> Would anyone oppose the idea of moving the ZIP and TAR.GZ assemblies into a
> "release" profile (or whatever name we agree to). This way we could
> maintain the directory "format" (which I suspect most of us use during
> development), while still providing a convenient way of creating the ZIP
> and TAR.GZ packages.
