RE: [M2] Mirror
Hi Remy, No, I have not compared Proximity and MRM. The reason being I could not locate a download for MRM and the following URL appeared to indicate that it was under development at the time when I wanted a maven proxy. http://maven.apache.org/archiva/ Thanks Lakshman _ From: Rémy Sanlaville [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 28 September 2006 6:38 PM To: Lakshman Srilakshmanan Subject: Re: [M2] Mirror Hi Tamás and Lakshman, Thanks for your reply. I would seriously question the need to get a mirror of central. For one thing, it's 5GB. Secondly you would never use it all. You would probably use a small fraction (ie at most 10%). My need is not just for my projects, but we want to test Maven 2 in a corporate context. As Better Build with Maven Book says : It is also possible to set up another repository (or use the same one) to mirror content from the Maven central repository. While this isn't required, it is common in many organizations as it eliminates the requirement for Internet access or proxy configuration. In addition, it provides faster performance (as most downloads to individual developers come from within their own network), and gives full control over the set of artifacts with which your software is built, by avoiding any reliance on Maven's relatively open central repository. As suggested by Tamás Cservenák, you should consider using proximity. It works like central and will hold only what you require. Yes, We have a look to proxy also and particularly to Proximity (Tamás have done a great job !). Do you have a comparison between Proximity and Maven Repository Manager (MRM). Thanks, R2my

Hi Lakshman, The reason being I could not locate a download for MRM and the following URL appeared to indicate that it was under development at the time when I wanted a maven proxy. http://maven.apache.org/archiva/ I know that MRM will be released soon (in few days) with Maestro [1] But at this time, It doesn't exist a distribution nor documentation. You have to either compile the source code or install Maestro. Hope this Help, Rémy [1] http://www.mergere.com/products_developers.jsp

[M2] Mirror
Hi, I would like to create a miror of the maven2 central repository. In the Better Build with Maven book, we have : * Use rsync to take a copy of the central repository and regularly update it But I don't know how to do it : which remote host can I use with which protocol (ftp ?). Could you please, given me the rsync command to use ? Thanks, Rémy
