I was motivated by http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3407 and some
personal headaches, mostly with dealing with working with OSS on a
laptop within restricted environments, (ie. no, or bad internet
connection, such as a service station, while waiting for your car to be
fixed.)
I have a local directory on my laptop with a central rsync and the
java.net repos, which helps a ton.
But, I've set up a long list of <mirrorOf> entries to catch specific ids
and redirect them to my file:// urls.
Which works, but the list is growing, I don't set up
<mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf> intentionally, because I have separations for the
directories (so that rsync works ok for example).
I was motivated tonite to scan my central rsync mirror for <repository>
and <pluginRepository> sections to see what is actually in use, what I
found kinda confirmed my suspicions, the free form repository id naming
has blossomed into an interesting variety of choices.
Heh, this email will be good google-bot food for people searching for
maven repository mirrors.

The approach nicolas took in MNG-3407 is strange. I don't understand
the whole {0} idea. Wouldn't it make more sense to base mirrorOf on
host or url instead?
That way the mirror section can be wrangled in a more sane way?
example:
<mirrors>
<mirror>
<mirrorOf>http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org</mirrorOf>
<url>file:///home/repos/codehaus/snapshots</url>
</mirror>
<mirror>
<mirrorOf>http://repository.codehaus.org</mirrorOf>
<url>file:///home/repos/codehaus/releases</url>
</mirror>
<mirror>
<mirrorOf>http://people.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository</mirrorOf>
<url>file:///home/repos/apache/snapshots</url>
</mirror>
</mirrors>
At first glance, the tendency would be to look for ":/" in the mirrorOf
setting and use an url based mirror mapping, but that is probably a bad
idea, considering that we had no restrictions on repository id naming.
just because central has noone using ":/" in the repository id doesn't
mean someone out there isn't using it.
