Github user FlorianHockmann commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/pull/867 You're right. It shouldn't be necessary to have an internet connection when all dependencies are already available. I thought that nuget.exe would only be downloaded once as we have the `available file` checks, but unfortunately nuget.exe was downloaded to a `bin` folder which gets cleaned with `mvn clean`. So I just pushed a commit that downloads nuget.exe instead directly into the `gremlin-dotnet` directory and now it won't be downloaded again after that.
