The main issue is that for dep resolution it still needs something
looks like a maven repo, not like /usr/java. I think a new resolver

yet.
Why is it bad to use the maven repos instead of copying things from
java/lib?
It makes reproducible builds hard/impossible and doesn't play well
with package systems.
I have not seen the former issue.. but I will trust you on it. On the
latter (package systems) using maven repos seems no worse then what is
being done now.
The issue with using maven repos is that if you happen to use svn to
rollback to a version where we were using maven, the build will most
likely fail because it is dependent on a set of external maven repos
that are no longer in sync with the needs of that particular revision.
sorry to be dense.. if I am using version 2.2 of a libarary, and then
rollback to version 2.1...how does that cause an issue with the build?
