Sebb commented on MRUNIT-130:
-----------------------------

Nexus is not intended for use as a release repository; for that one should use 
Maven Central, which is built in to Maven be default.

i.e. you just need to provide the Maven co-ordinates and Maven builds will find 
the jars.

[It's also not particularly easy to download jars from the Nexus GUI.]

                
> Download page does not point to KEYS; no hashes in download area; must not

> The download area does not contain any MD5 or SHA1 hashes; these MUST be 
> present.
> Can probably just copy them from the dist/incubator/mrunit area.
> The download page should also describe how to use the KEYS and hashes; for 
> example see for example:
> http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi
> Also, the download page currently links to SNAPSHOT builds in Nexus.
> Such builds have not been formally approved and therefore should not be 
> advertised to the general public.
> If mentioned at all, they should only be referenced on pages that are clearly 
> for devlopers and they should be warned that the builds have not been checked 
> or approved.
