Publish artifacts to Maven central
Summary
The Eclipse Dataspace Connector project want to publish artifacts that can be retrieved from Maven central. What needs to be done, what (intermediary) repo must created for publication? Especially it is a question of how to get the corresponding credentials that we can store as repo secret? Aim is to enable a Github workflow or job to publish SNAPHOTS, triggered by PR merges into main.
Do we need a Jenkins instance as a first step? Are there other ways to achieve this?
Steps to reproduce
I found https://wiki.eclipse.org/IT_Infrastructure_Doc#Publish_to_Maven_Central and https://wiki.eclipse.org/CBI#Requesting_a_JIPP_instance, but only info is that we need webmasters support ;)
What is the expected correct behavior?
We are able to publish/forward artifacts to Maven Central
Thanks!
