Description

Sonatype is starting to implement limits on publishing, described here https://central.sonatype.org/publish/maven-central-publishing-limits/

Image

The deadline for this is August 11, 2026.

We can contact them for an increase in quota, but they might not like us publishing frequent betas there. What we did with Python is publish the betas to an alternate registry, and only publish stable releases to the main one. I'm not sure if we can self-host a Maven registry or not.
