Hi Brent,

That's great; are there any short-term plans to host the javadocs and a
browseable repo? If there's a physical resource issue with hosting these, I
could potentially host. I agree dependency management frameworks are the
way to go when building projects, but less so for learning APIs. Of course,
I'm biased as I currently use vim as my IDE and firefox for reading
javadocs so miss a lot of modern features.

FWIW, if it makes life easier there's a maven plugin I developed at
http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.pcl-solutions.maven.wagons/rsync-maven-wagon/1.0
that might be useful for deploying javadocs during artifact deployment to
nexus - I believe this works reliably, although while writing it I switched
from Java to PHP development for my day job, and consequently haven't used
it in a while. My main Java focus at the moment is Gerrit, which is using
BUCK for builds, so I don't anticipate that changing any time soon.

I'm happy to help with writing some OS3 documentation for the wiki, but
since I'm a neophite with OpenSAML, it would be good to have someone
peer-review my write-ups to ensure they're not harmfully inaccurate.

Phil
