We will be using Wagon which has been integrated into maven2 already and
will be easy to integrate into maven1 too. Currently Wagon supports
getting and putting of artifacts via http(s)/ftp/scp and simple files.

The artifact plugin was the beginning of the work that Michal did for a
general mechanism. The ideas have been rolled into Wagon which will be
released in alpha form over the next few weeks. Alpha more because we
need feedback on the API the code itself is stable and tested.

It definitely should and will be once Wagon is integrated.

In short you simply have to setup your repository in the same format as
you see at ibiblio.

We'll try to integrate Wagon asap as this has been the intention. But
you'll have to wait a bit because Michal just went on vacation for 8
days and he's generally pretty busy anyway :-)
