The flatDir() resolver has useOrigin = true as the default.
As part of the Gradle 1.0-milestone-1 and 1.0-milestone-2 releases, we plan to
rework the dependency DSL. This will probably include having useOrigin = true
become the default for all resolvers and caches.
Given this, do you think you'll still need to configure the ivy caches?
