For the repository constraint I agree.But what can we recommend to jboss and
others company which have this need to be a good maven citizen ?
I'll have the same issue soon with my company exoplatform.
We are interested to deploy nexus and push some of our artifacts in central
but what to do with :
- artifacts deployed on repositories not synched with central (java.net &
co)
- modified oss libraires


Cheers,

Arnaud
