I agree with Mladen, in practice, my projects at work all use Ivy for
dependency management, and that means that public packages like Apache jars
are fetched from places like Maven Central.

It is actually has been a pain to work with [daemon] in the past because
the Windows binaries are NOT in Maven Central. This has forced us to
manually manage these binaries in our Artifactory repository, which in
turns has slowed the adoption of newer versions of [daemon], in fact, this
is one of the reasons we are still on version 1.0.8.
