I appreciate the mirroring of the binaries (based on recent GitPackages discussion)....however this still makes me wonder why is are these mirrored binaries needed and why not just use another existing (maven) repository with the artifacts?
Using these repositories could address having newer already built artifacts. If it they are unavailable (raising a ticket to resolve that), then for legacy support I could see using it until such time as an alternative artifact can be identified and/or replacing the older dependency.
