Having an app to do uploads: +1
Allowing anyone to load artifacts with no security measures: -googleplex

(and if anyone adds a "priceless" line, I will personally send a hungry shark with laser beams to eat you)

Howdy,

I now have all the requisite bits and bobs (thanks strachan) for a
little server that can process upload requests in an automated fashion
but I wouldn't mind a little input on the contents of the archive
uploaded and some ideas on the workflow and security related issues.

We can easily make a plugin to assemble the archive so it include the
artifact in a JAR format, the license and whatever else is needed. The
artifact can easily be extracted and pushed to ibiblio along with the
license and anything else we need.

If we can push through this quickly I will get the app up and running
and remove the bottleneck of having the limited number of repo admins
processing the requests. Hopefully this will open the flood gates and
allow anyone who wants to push artifacts into the central repo and this
should also help with pushing POMs into the central repo which will be
required for transitive deps.
