Hm... just a side observation: I ended up writing something similar myself, a very simple one: https://github.com/steinarb/maven-repository-snapshot-pruner I use it to prune snapshots from my own maven repository. My entry level VPS (Virtual Private Server) in the cloud, wasn't big enough to run nexus in addition to its other stuff. So I set up a simple maven repository, using ftp to deploy to a directory structure, with nginx serving up the same structure in HTTP. And since what I'm mainly deploying to this maven repository is snapshots, and what I want is just a single snapshot, I wrote the above utility.
