Lol, Ron has valid points but I am indeed going forward (and have only myself to blame).
Agreed I just need the pom files which are much smaller, but it is still lots of hits on the web server. If anyone knows of a 'nice' way of getting just the pom files that would be good enough for the moment. As a last resort I suppose I could write something that attempts to slowly slurp them down over time. Anyone have any ideas what a 'reasonable' rate of doing lots of small GETs on the repo would be?
