Hi,
I guess I wouldn't think it appropriate to put on ibiblio as it is now. Would you be satisfied with a SNAPSHOT build on the Apache "nightly-build/beta" repository? http://cvs.apache.org/repository/
Maybe I'm making too much of the "sandbox" status and the like, but my sense has been that the ibiblio mirror is intended for more official, finished stuff.
I don't think you're making too much of it: I agree with the above.
OK, that's all I needed. I went ahead and executed "maven jar:deploy-snapshot" against the commons-email CVS HEAD. -- see http://cvs.apache.org/repository/commons-email
Note that the Maven deploy plugin has changed its model for defining deployment repositories to support a list of repositories instead of just the "maven.repo.central" property. At some point, it would be good for Commons projects to cooperatively make some choices about these -- they rely upon interdependently named properties, and enough that it would be tedious to have to type them all in each time.
I was working on this question for Struts recently, and below is what I have in the Struts project.properties file (as yet uncommitted). I offer it for comments/feedback. It wouldn't hurt to use the same stuff for all Apache projects, or if that's not possible, we should choose good names for the repository "IDs" (the "xxx" part).

#- For nightly builds, use:
#- maven jar:deploy-snapshot
#- This will deploy to the 'default' directory, which corresponds to the "remote
" repository
#- http://cvs.apache.org/repository/
#- For production builds, use:
#- maven -Dmaven.repo.list=ibiblio-mirror jar:deploy
#-
#- you must define maven.repo.xxx.username and maven.repo.xxx.privatekey as maven #- properties outside of this file, because they are unique per user. Put them
in
#- ${project.home}/build.properties or ${user.home}/build.properties or specify
them
#- on the command line.
