Hi,
I'm investigating on a failure[2] on jenkins jobs for ovirt-engine-api-model[1] on el7.
Before I further invest time on it, I'd like to understand the purpose of the job.

As far as I can tell the project is building some documentation in different formats and a tarball with the sources:

asciidoctor.css 28.92 KB
model.adoc 1.24 MB
model.csv 264.77 KB
model.html 3.37 MB
model.json 7.39 MB
model.xml 6.09 MB
ovirt-engine-api-model-4.3.8.20180213gita1f6d9a.tar.gz 246.48 KB

I think that some way the output may be used by http://ovirt.github.io/ovirt-engine-api-model/ but I don't feel like this is really done.

I also see that artifacts are published on https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.ovirt.engine.api%7Cmodel%7C4.3.7.color%7Cjar
but this is also not done by the jenkins jobs.

I see this artifacts is required in ovirt-engine pom.xml: <model.version>4.3.7</model.version>

So I would expect the job to prepare a rpm including this jar and pom to be required in ovirt-engine spec file, at least if we follow Fedora packaging guidelines.

As is, this jobs seams meaningless. What should we do here? Drop the job? Fix it for building rpms?
