Describe the refactoring action
No longer prepare a binary distribution.
Expected benefit
The UIMA JARs are likely to be mostly consumed via Maven Central these days.
For the installation of the Eclipse Plugins, we have our update site
Documentation is available on our website
We need to check and update the license and notice files of all the third-party JARs we include in the binary distribution. This takes a lot of time. Having no binary distribution removes this to some degree (we still have the problem with third-party JARs embedded in the Eclipse plugin JARs - but maybe we can do without embedded JARs in the future and pull things in via OSGi at runtime).
The build includes various quirks in particular in the UIMAJ root POM to handle the binary distribution in the way it is currently built. These can be removed.
Drawbacks
A good part of the installation instructions of our documentation gets outdated then and needs to be updated or removed.
In particular the descriptions of the examples assume a binary distribution. We need to switch things to the source distribution.
Scripts and apps such as cpeGui.sh or runV3migrateJCas.sh are not longer conveniently accessible. That said, I doubt there are (m)any people using those.
