Adding the mirror was all I needed to do last night to hack away.

Subject: Re: maven.glassfish.org put offline

D'oh! Sorry, I search for "maven.glassfish.org" on Google Groups but it didn't 
give me https://groups.google.com/d/topic/jenkinsci-dev/1aPlT07gRQ0/discussion 
(and I didn't recognize "m.g.o-public" as a synonym while quickly scanning the 
latest threads)

So, does it mean I could have added a mirror in my settings.xml?
Something like:
<mirror>
  <id>repo.jenkins-ci.org</id>
  <mirrorOf>m.g.o-public</mirrorOf>
  
<url>http://repo.jenkins-ci.org/public</url<http://repo.jenkins-ci.org/public%3c/url>>
</mirror>

Hi there,

I was going to start hacking on Jenkins (actually on the gerrit-trigger-plugin) 
and Maven's “downlading the internet…” was taking much longer than it should 
be. I then noticed it stopped for minutes trying to resolve artifacts from 
maven.glassfish.org<http://maven.glassfish.org>.
It turns out the server has been put offline in the last couple of days: 
http://java.net/projects/glassfish/lists/dev/archive/2012-02/message/118

As a workaround, I ended up hacking the downloaded POMs to remove the 
references to the repository: sed -i 
's|http://maven.glassfish.org/content/groups/public/|http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/|<http://maven.glassfish.org/content/groups/public/%7Chttp:/repo1.maven.org/maven2/%7C>'
 $(grep -R maven.glassfish.org<http://maven.glassfish.org> ~/.m2/ --include 
'*.pom' -l)
It all went smooth after that, proof that references to that maven repo were 
not actually needed ⇒ bad practice (or were they really needed at some earlier 
point in time?)

Well, that just a FYI (with a little bit of rant); now back to hacking!

(and by the way, thank you so much for making Jenkins!)
