Maven dependency: msg#00007

Subject: Maven dependency
Hi, folks.

I recently set up JIST to use Maven:
 http://telstech.org/jist/

One of JIST's dependencies is SISC and it would be nice if it were in the Maven repository like so many other useful packages.
 http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/

This page suggests that it's pretty easy to upload JARs for inclusion in the repository:
 http://maven.apache.org/repository-upload.html

One catch is that Maven only handles JAR dependencies and SISC requires sisc.shp. I think this should be okay with the sisc-heap.jar built by the "heap-jar" Ant target.

What I'm thinking is to follow those instructions and upload a "sisc-1.8.8.jar" that merges sisc.jar, sisc-lib.jar, sisc-opt.jar and sisc-heap.jar. What do you guys think?

Incidentally, it would be even easier to make (and maintain) the repository submission if the project had a Maven POM. It could also make the Debian package trivial using the deb plugin.
