Continuing the discussion from OpenMRS 2.3 Release - milestones:
Looks like the release plugin “did the wrong thing” and tagged and deployed “1.6-SNAPSHOT” as 1.6, hence why 1.6 didn’t end up in the maven repo. I just manually released version 1.6.1 of Html Form Entry 1.9 extension, deployed it to the mavenrepo, and updated the ref app distro. Fingers crossed this time. I have not uploaded it to Modulus because it appears to be down again, but have it on my todos.
