I don't use "archetype:generate" command. I create maven projects from sketch

Why didn't the .msi put it there for me? Is there some other repository I need to configure in my Maven settings? Why aren't the necessary NPanday pieces in Maven Central? As an aside, I don't have any love for Visual Studio, and right now I am using http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/Default.aspx I can live without the IDE integration for now, and just use NPanday from the command line.
