gson-extras is not available as a Maven artifact

[nivs]

gson-extras is not distributed as part of the main artifact, and there is no independent artifact for it.
This leads to either including the source code, or relying on 3rd party artifacts (outdated).

[inder123]

That is by design. We have no intention of maintaining backward compatibility on extras. You should include source-code.

[nivs]

It seems there is now a gson-extras artifact available. Is it an official artifact? Was the decision mentioned in @inder123's comment changed?

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.code.gson/gson-extras/2.8.5

[inder123]

It is not an official artifact. Not sure how it got there.

The link: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.code.gson/gson-extras/2.8.5

It's not on Maven Central. The page says:

Note: this artifact it located at CronApp repository (https://artifactory.cronapp.io/public-release/)

[DanySK]

I am currently maintaining a build of gson-extras and shipping it to Central.
