Aha. given maven's auto-download and dependency-resolving behaviour, this makes sense. When they're seperate repos a user (lets say a build manager or sysadmin or whatever the name for the role is) could put in place a firewall or specially configured proxy server to restrict only to "apache endorsed and final". But anyone who can do that can also put in place a rule that blocks on any URL containing "incubat" :) So I still don't care much either way, as long as its documented :) LSD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
