the way we publish to Maven Central (OSSRH) is reaching end of life on June 30, 2025

I received this email the other day...

Greetings OSSRH Publisher,

As you may have heard, OSSRH is reaching end of life on June 30, 2025. OSSRH users need to migrate their namespaces to the Central Portal as soon as possible.

Instructions for self migration are located here: https://central.sonatype.org/faq/what-is-different-between-central-portal-and-legacy-ossrh/#self-service-migration

To make the transition smoother we will be automatically migrating publishers that have not used oss.sonatype.org or s01.sonatype.org to publish artifacts in some time starting with the oldest and working our way forward. To avoid disruption to your publishing processes we strongly encourage migrating before the June 30, 2025 deadline.

Thank you for your assistance,

The Central Team

... and discussed it briefly with @poikilotherm at https://dataverse.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/379673-dev/topic/migrate.20OSSRH.20to.20Central/near/517034618

He confirmed that all repos that push to Maven Central are affected. Here's a partial list for now:

• https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse
  • https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v6.7.1/modules/dataverse-spi/pom.xml
    • related: Publish SPI package to Maven Central (post defunct OSSRH) #11905
• https://github.com/IQSS/UNF
• https://github.com/gdcc/xoai
• https://github.com/gdcc/sword2-server

• Assigning 30 until we know more. There is an end-of-June 2025 deadline!

I just migrated io.gdcc to Central Portal. org.dataverse was done already.

A new Deploy Token has been issued for Dataversebot, to be inserted into CI secrets.

Snaps enabled

Secrets have been updated.

Maven parent has been updated to get all things in place. Uploading snaps works. Verified.

Triggered release of v0.12.1 of parent pom.

🎉 Success! 🎉

Now we need to update all of our projects to make use of (thenew version of) the parent POM (which is what we wanted for a looooong time anyway).

@cmbz I resized. Not much to do in this repo. Mostly done by me. Will leave some grunt work to @pdurbin or other "volunteers"...
