It seems like a few of us are thinking about the same thing :) I wouldn't mind hearing Artifactory's thoughts too ;)
Maven/Ivy, Nexus, Artifactory are great tools and useful from a Java perspective. I would like to bring those benefits to other languages (.NET, C++ etc). Tooling support isn't right up there (so you might need to have a prebuild step that kicks off a script that pulls down dependencies to a lib folder and then have VS reference the assemblies in the lib folder) but it could be workable (i.e. prebuild step if using VS or you do it all via the command line e.g. Nan't / MSBuild). My question (and this is where my lack of knowledge around this stuff shows :) ) is what would be the best way of storing the output in artifactory. Does it have to be a zip file (as the article linked to in the thread) shows or does the Ivy option give us something extra...i.e. the ability to store the actual assemblies, docs etc)? What would be better for you from a dev team perspective and what would artifactory be able to offer (e.g. could you specify an assembly name/version in the search....could the generated .xml documentation file(s) be used to allow you to search by public class name etc)?
