Brett Porter commented on MNG-461:
----------------------------------

on the first statement - currently we create dummy poms in the repo anyway, so 
this wouldn't be any different.

I don't quite understand the second point. If it is not found, then it would be 
faked, if it was found it would be used. It's going to be consistent across 
environments.

The main problem is that it would have to check for it every time, or write a 
local copy of the fake pom, which would yield the situation you talked about. 
However, we already have that situation when we fix metadata in the remote 
repository, so maybe that is ok and we need focus on a way of getting that 
updated (maybe a confidence level on a POM that dictated whether it got update 
checks even if it weren't a snapshot), or just encourage a pom flush from the 
local repo regularly?

> warn, but don't fail, on a missing POM in the repository
