Or we could try the following:

devide ivy into different parts:
- ivy-core: the core of ivy which uses standard JDK classes only (I'm not sure 
this is possible at the moment)
- ivy-ant: the ant tasks
- ivy-ext: the extra functionality of ivy (like the different resolvers, ...) 
which requires third-party libraries

The ant build.xml can now compile 'ivy-core' and 'ivy-ant' without any problem, 
because these parts don't need extra dependencies to be downloaded. After the 
ivy-core and ivy-ant parts are compiled, they can be used to download the 
dependencies of the ivy-ext part.

This has the additional advantage that for building at least the 'ivy-core' and 
'ivy-ant' package, you don't have to be online

Hi,

another possiblity for the old ivy releases would be to upload them to

http://repo1.maven.org/maven/ivy/distributions
                                                              jars
                                                              poms

This document explains how to create an upload bundle.
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-ibiblio-upload.html

It does not seem to explain how a distribution file should/could be  
named in the upload bundle.

The best way would be that Xavier creates the upload bundles and  
enters a JIRA to get the old ivy versions uploaded.

I will ask on repository@ how the distributions should be named  
inside upload bundle jars.

Regards,

Antoine
