How can I publish an existing plugin jar to the plugin portal?

Hi! Sorry, I was on leave and just got back today.

“1. How can I also publish a JavaDoc jar?”

You should be able to add the javadoc jar to the archives configuration. See the user guide for details on how to do that, but it will probably look something like:

artifacts {
    archives javadoc // assuming using the default javadoc task
}

@boxfuse

“2. The description and the tags are not updated with new versions. This is unfortunate as we would like to evolve these over time as features get added. Is there a way to force this? If not, could you do it manually for the current version (apply tags & description of 1.11.2 to plugin in general)?”

This is a known issue. In the meantime, I have updated the description manually for now, but don’t have access to the tags used when publishing the latest version. Let me know here if you need them changed.
