From your answer I think we might have a bit of a misunderstanding - I'm not having any problem opening and building the actual Maven projects - that just works.
I actually meant generating the Netbeans project using the appropriate Maven plugin - which is what the link I pasted explains. Now maybe the repository browser you're trying to use is not "linked" to projects in Netbeans, I have no idea :D
I did a bit of rooting about in my local Maven repository I can see the index is a directory called ".index" in the repository folder of my repository (ie. at ~/.m2/repository/.index). I imagine this contains an index of everything in the repository, which allows the Netbeans repository browser to easily list it to the user without having to read everything in the remote repository. From what I can tell the Magnolia repository either doesn't have an index like that for some reason (maybe it's not a real Maven repository, but just a bunch of projects uploaded to the server?), or else your web server is configured to refuse to serve invisible files (so it's not letting me look in the ".index" directory).
There's no such file on our repository indeed - and the same goes for my local repository btw, so I suspect it's a Netbeans thing ... ?
