This replaces the BeanShell script used to create source and binary distribution with a Groovy script.
The main motivations for the change are:
While the BeanShell project is still active, the
2.xbranch has no releases in Maven Central since 2015. The3.xbranch has only snapshots.Apache Groovy on the other hand is a very active project.
The
beanshell-maven-pluginseems dormant since 2017 or does not have enough users to report bugs against it.The
gmaven-pluginon the other hand is relatively active and supported by the Apache Groovy team.Closes #196.
