Dear Experts,
Guess we are somewhat lucky with Kenai/java.net abandoning, that we can
start using JSR-275 as a guinea pig first;-D
Similar to the Google Code project before I created a new target repo
https://github.com/unitsofmeasurement/jsr-275
Will likely import the current state of the latest SVN trunk there myself.
No need to preserve much else. Snapshots are in MavenCentral (and e.g.
0.9.3 is massively popular, downloads recently exceeded the 25k mark;-O) so
I probably won't bother tagging something manually (Google Code export was
pretty neat restoring all of it to GitHub) JCenter has all artifacts
(though for some reason it seems there was no requirement for source JARs
then?;-) so I could try to upload source JARs to Bintray myself for the
record, but that seems about it.
Will ask e.g. to point the old jsr-275 page to the new Github repo page.
For the old JSR that should be enough.
If there's a proper place like Bintray for the Tarball, I shall see what we
get and how big it is.
JSR 363 can follow later, after JavaOne and a Final release I'd say;)
Regards,
Werner

If it works (also allows versioning either with a tag like EDR or the
