Need maven artifacts for this library

It would be great if you could provide maven artifacts for these projects.
Flex-mojos is a good starting point for mavenizing them.

I am open to this if someone wants to volunteer to do the work.

Here's what is required: Run this command:

mvn deploy:deploy-file
-Dfile=as3corelib.swc
-Durl=file:///path/to/some/repo
-DgroupId=com.adobe
-DartifactId=as3corelib
-Dversion=0.92
-Dpackaging=swc

What this does is to deploy the as3corelib.swc file to /path/to/some/repo (using the
groupId, artifactId, version). After this if /path/to/some/repo is exposed on the
web, users will be able to refer to that web URL (by defining a repository in their
Maven project) and use as3corelib as a dependency in their Maven projects.

Temporary work around is for users to install the file into their local Maven repository:

mvn install:install-file
-Dfile=as3corelib.swc
-DgroupId=com.adobe
-DartifactId=as3corelib
-Dversion=0.92
-Dpackaging=swc
-DgeneratePom=true
-DcreateChecksum=true

Some Google Code projects use a portion of the SVN tree itself for the Maven
repository since it's already accessible on the web. For example:
http://flex-mojos.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repository/
is a Maven repository.

there are two choices here = one is to use the flex-mojos project to use maven to
build the project or as arun here says, which I feel is a much better option, is to
deploy the final artifacts into the repository.

it is imperative for you guys to come up with the group id and artifact ids, for the
project.

BTW I noticed that this project is using Ant for the build. There are some Maven Ant
tasks available:
http://maven.apache.org/ant-tasks/index.html
Specifically the deploy task can be used in this project's build.xml:
http://maven.apache.org/ant-tasks/reference.html#install

A maven repo for this would be great. Using the old as3corelib svn repo on googlecode would work well.
