Description petteyg359 2015-08-01 01:27:43 UTC 
For POI 3.12 beta1 and final and 3.13 beta1 the Maven artifact classifier for javadoc got an "s" added, so is now -javadocs.jar.

This is non-standard and breaks tools that auto-download *-javadoc.jar along with the main *.jar. Looked through SVN history, and couldn't find exactly where this changed, but r1637827 may be relevant (search for added "javadocs-${DSTAMP}").

That's lovely and consistent - maven seems to use plurals for sources and tests, but not for javadocs...

Hopefully fixed in r1693769. Please let us know if 3.13 beta 2 (once released) doesn't look correct!
