If the deps are a Maven module, this should work: Use dependencies:copy-dependencies to get that module Unpack it using an ant task Use maven-install-plugin to put them in the local repository. That might need to happen in a separate module (commons/get-dependencies?) so that it happens before modules that need those dependencies are built. This is starting to sound complicated...maybe just downloading those dependencies from their stable URL if they have one, and checking their md5 (to make sure everybody gets the same version) before adding them to the local Maven repo, would be simpler. -Bertrand
