Yes, I also forsee the pissing contest unfortunately. Part of the problem is that there are the same artifacts in both repositories with differing poms. Which pom is correct?
This makes troubleshooting a nightmare when 2 developers are getting different results, only to finally find out that one of them had the jboss repo as an extra repo in their settings.xml, or even just once built a project that used the jboss repo and now has differing artifacts in their local repo. Bad example since version is slightly different but shouldn't be(ga compared to GA) but still shows pom differences. http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/org/hibernate/hibernate-validator/3.0.0.GA/hibernate-validator-3.0.0.GA.pom http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/hibernate/hibernate-validator/3.0.0.ga/hibernate-validator-3.0.0.ga.pom Maven central version has no dependencies. _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
