Location of catalog files
The Archetype Plugin knows by default about its internal catalog. It
also knows about the local and remote catalogs.

local represents the ~/.m2/archetype-catalog.xml catalog file.

remote represents the
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/archetype-catalog.xml catalog file.

The Archetype Plugin can also read catalogs from filesystem/HTTP by
providing the path/URL of a catalog file or of a directory containing an
archetype-catalog.xml file.
