Issue1731

Please deploy version 2.5.1 and 2.5.2 to a public Maven repository. The last available artifact version is 2.5.0, but this one doesn't have the JSR 223 support, Scripting for the Java language, bundled in its jython.jar.

Yes it would be very nice to have Jython always up to date on Maven central. Would make it a lot easier to use.

It also blocking me for putting on central a project which depends on Jython.

I'm not a maven user, so it probably doesn't make sense for me to be in charge of pushing to maven. I'd love to help someone who is a maven user get Jython up to date in the public Maven repositories. What can I do to help? Note that for 2.7 Toby Crawley has submitted a better maven build experience for us -- see #1922 and #1923 for details.

I think the first thing to be clean is to produce a jar in which all the Jython dependencies are not bundled (can be used to produce what is the current jython.jar from it). Then add the dependencies to the Maven pom.xml.

The 2.5.3rc1 release is hosted on maven as will all future releases - see the 2.5.3rc1 announcement for links: http://fwierzbicki.blogspot.com/2012/08/jython-253rc1-released.html
