I'm not sure what I did to screw things up, but lately it is failing to download plugins because it is trying to use a version that doesn't exist. I'm using Nexus as a mirror of everything.
E.g., I just tried to do a "mvn archetype:create" to create a new plugin and it gave an error because it's trying to download the maven-archetype-plugin version 2.0-alpha-6, which doesn't exist. What did I do that screwed things up? Is something wrong with Nexus? Do I need to do a sync or something? Thanks, Phillip P.S.
