That's a bug in the m1->m2 repository converter.

The repository is scanned every 4 hours and repairs missing/broken md5s (bearing in mind that we don't consider them as a security option, but a download integrity check) > Also, and this is just for generic cool demo effects, who can point me > to a good (AWT/swing) app that the repository has? > > I'd like to demo the repository as the open source successor to java > web start: all your favourite OSS apps, all your favourite libraries, > one shared local cache. I can't think of anything off the top of my head... if you find something, you can send it through the Maven upload process. > NB, next week I'll do ant1.7 support; Maven2 *will* be the default > there.

You're definitely getting into optional libraries there - so I'll resurrect Wagon's ant tasks from CVS and get them working again to offer up, as I mentioned in my previous email. Cheers, Brett
