You could always pony up some of your own money for a server or try
finding a free hosting service and install the MRM there.
You could even leave your home computer on all the time and let your
other resources connect to the MRM you install there.
Managing your own server is eating more time than most people can
imagine.
Setting up a server just to inject a jar from a stable external source
is a ridiculously overpowered solution anyway.
It takes less than an hour to set up Nexus.
I wrote "managing", not "setting up".
Though even setting up a server that you can install a webservice on
takes an hour if you know the process, and two or three days if you
don't. (I'm talking from personal experience.)
You have spent far more time than that already trying to avoid it and
your grief has only just begun.
Blub. [*]
So, no, this isn't an option, and I'm not going to argue that again
(and again and again - why do you guys insist on repeating advice that
has already been rejected, with arguments?)
To be honest, you have to admit that many of your arguments were based
on assumptions that have not been borne out in fact.
Im counting just one.
And TBH it took quite a while to even inform me of a way to identify
what's a repo and what isn't. No, wait... that question has remained
unanswered. Also, the question what's the difference between a cache and
a repo.
[*] You still fall to the same evangelization routine. Your grief has
only begun, you won't be convincing and it's better if you stick with
the One True Toolforger Way of giving arguments and explaining the
situation instead of evangelizing.
Sounds silly? Sure it does. Who am I to lecture you. Yet it's exactly
the kind of reasoning that I'm still hearing - the level has subsided,
but the temptation still seems to be there.
Just cut it, please. It's annoying because it's sidetracking... ah, why
am I even writing this, it's ingrained in the Maven Culture it seems.
I'll simply ignore inappropriate advice from now on.
