Hello; Some java ports, especially from ASF projects, commonly use maven to build and maven is meant to be a ports-like system to fetch dependencies as part of the build. Maven has it's own repository: http://search.maven.org/#browse
This is a problem with the Apache POI port but it is also an issue with a potential Apache hadoop update: apparently our cluster doesn't like ports that download stuff as part of their build so Apache POI is broken. While it should be possible to independently pre-download all the dependencies and extract them were Maven needs them, this tends to make the use of Maven for ports a lot of work. Anyone has a good idea on how this should be dealt with?
