Not sure I understand the questions. That URL is where Maven projects will download Commons Logging from if they have a dependency (direct or indirect) on it. It is the default Maven repository which is embedded in Maven, but there's no reason why you should not download jars from it using Ant or any other build tool. > >> >>> Does anybody know how to do that? >>> >>> Andre >>> >>> [1] https://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/p/ooo-extras/ >>> [2] http://commons.apache.org/logging/download_logging.cgi >>> >>> PS: I changed my email address from a...@a-w-f.de to >>> awf....@googlemail.com, >>> but I am still the same person. > >
