One of the reasons why we have maven point to repo.maven.apache.org is such
that if "the worst" happened, and sonatype was no longer providing the
service *and* there were delays transferring the maven.org domains then the
Maven PMC would be able to re-point the domain under our control
immediately to one of the other non-sonatype replicas and allow continuity
of service for users.

We do not envision this being required, but we have plans in place just in
case
