We are using IBM MQ 8.0.0.4 in our application and so we are planning on hosting the jars in our maven repository manager (Nexus OSS 2 in this case).
What is the convention for the GAV for IBM MQ specifically?
The jars that are required are:
commonservices.jar
dhbcore.jar
headers.jar
jmqi.jar
mqjms.jar
pcf.jar
mq.jar
Nojndi.jar
jndi.jar
fscontext.jar
providerutil.jar
jms.jar
connector.jar
All of them up to mq.jar are IBM jars.
Should I use the com.ibm group id?
Or the com.ibm.mq group id?
Or a mix - for instance the manifest for dhbcore.jar says com.ibm.disthub2
What is the convention for the version number? Should I use 8.0.0.4 for all the ibm jars or should I take the version from the manifest?
The version in the manifest is 8.0.0.4 in most of them but commonervices.jar and mqjms.jar say p800-004-151017. This still looks like 8.0.0.4 to me but looks like some non-maven snapshot convention.
What are the conventions in this case? (I'm not looking for the general maven conventions but how they apply specifically to this use case).

UPDATE:
As of v9.0.4.0 IBM have pushed copies of the MQ Java client interfaces to the Central Repository under the com.ibm.mq GroupId. e.g.
com.ibm.mq
com.ibm.mq.allclient
9.0.4.0
ORIGINAL:
At IBM MQ v8.0.0.3 and higher you can download a Java only client which includes a fewer number of jar files. This is packaged as a self extracting jar file. The latest v8 package can be downloaded on Fix Central using this link: IBM MQ JMS and Java 'All Client'
Most of the previously separate jars are now included in the com.ibm.mq.allclient.jar.
For IBM MQ Classes for Java you can find the list of files required on the Knowledge Center page "What is installed for IBM MQ classes for Java":
Relocatable JAR files
Within an enterprise, the following files can be moved to systems that need to run IBM MQ classes for Java
applications:
com.ibm.mq.allclient.jar
com.ibm.mq.traceControl.jar
For IBM MQ Classes for JMS you can find the list of files required on the Knowledge Center page "What is installed for IBM MQ classes for JMS":
Relocatable JAR files
Within an enterprise, the following files can be moved to systems that need to run IBM MQ classes for JMS:
com.ibm.mq.allclient.jar
com.ibm.mq.traceControl.jar
jms.jar
fscontext.jar
providerutil.jar
For version numbers I suggest you use the version number of the package they came from, in your example 8.0.0.4.
