Hi Taher,
thanks for bringing this up!
This is indeed something we should care about quite soon. It will
affect the upcoming 18.12 release as well as supporting the 17.12
release for which we might have to do another release handling this.
I created a Jira issue for it at [1].
I also did a first check with wiped Gradle cache and removed JCenter
reference and put the results in the Jira as well. There are about 78
libraries which are not found at Maven central.
While there are a lot of Apache libraries which we can assume to be
moved to Maven central soon, there are also some libraries which might
not be maintained actively.
Will think about how to handle this and come back here.
Thanks,

Hello Everyone,
I received emails and checked resources [1] that seem to confirm
JCenter from JFrog is going down and that the last day of operation
for the repository is going to be May 1st 2021.
This is a big deal as many running instances will crash unless
updated, so not only do future versions of OFBiz need to adapt, but
also existing installations.
I'm not sure how to best handle this? Especially for production
instances out there on older versions of OFBiz. Maybe one solution is
to host the existing libraries in some temporary location or try to
migrate them to MavenCentral ... Whatever is the solution I think we
should make a fast move.
