Wagon can indeed support any layout but this is for general purpose use outside Maven. We will focus on one particular layout within Maven but this is really for Maven's use. For humans to find things it will eventually come to pass that we have a small application that indexes the POMs and provides many ways to find a particular artifact. The one layout as used by Maven internally doesn't mean we can't use the information in the POM to provide other ways to find an artifact. -- jvz.
