Not sure if I follow. Maven promotes it's own standard way of declaring dependencies and organizing repositories of artifacts. If I understand you correctly your question is: can I use custom repository structure and custom way of declaring dependencies. At the time being there is nothing in maven which allows you to plug your own "strategy" for organizing repository. Although it will be probably possible (internally) in next generation of maven this is not something we would really like to see as there are obvious profits from using common standards. So at the moment either you use maven with "maven standard" and this works out of the box or you are on your own with the full power to do things as you want. But then the profits from using maven (if any) are not so appealing. Only way for making some things which are off the standard is: http://maven.apache.org/reference/user-guide.html#Overriding_Stated_Dependen cies > 2. Is there a way to use different file name than maven.xml? No. Why do you need to do this? > 3.

Can you please avoid sending twice the same message (to both user & dev lists)?
