Remove changes.xml in favor of github based announcement generation #22

Closed mscholl closed 11 years ago

mscholl commented 11 years ago

The maven changes plugin now supports the generation of a changes report from the github issue tracker if configured properly. The usage of automated generation is far more suitable than the manual creation of a changes.xml file, which basically is error prone and duplicates existing information.

Although not properly described yet (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-changes-plugin/announcement-generate-mojo.html#issueManagementSystems) the changes plugin does support generation of changes from github. It basically uses the same mechanism as 'changes:github-report' goals with the 'onlyCurrentVersion' flag set to true does. Thus it is important that the relevant issues are assigned to the milestone with the same version as the current (soon to be released) version in the pom and that the issues are closed.
