----------------------------------------

             Summary: Support SHA256 and SHA512
                 Key: MRESOLVER-56
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOLVER-56
             Project: Maven Resolver
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: resolver
    Affects Versions: Maven Artifact Resolver 1.1.1
            Reporter: Konrad Windszus


As both supported checksums on remote repositories (namely MD5 and SHA1 have 
known flaws) it would be nice if the Maven Resolver could also leverage other 
hashes like SHA256 and SHA512.
Although those hashes aren't part of the official Maven 2 repository layout 
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVENOLD/Repository+Layout+-+Final,
 couldn't find any newer/other spec) I don't see how an additional .SHA256 file 
could introduce backwards compatibility issues with older clients.
