Ivo, you need to search back in the archives about why putting repository declarations in pom.xml is a bad idea. Look especially for the one that is trying to speed up the build process. Short summary: Maven will needless contact all five of your repositories looking for artifacts that probably aren't even there. This will require a tcp/ip connection for each one and when you have large dependencies this can significantly slow down your build. Which is why we all recommend putting a Maven Repository Manager (MRM) in between you and the rest of the w orld. MRMs have the smarts to know that a repository has already been checked for an artifact and doesn't have it. They can be configured to blacklist/whitelist artifacts so you dont leak your internal development artifact names to external repositories, or waste time looking for something that doesn't exist at that repo. As others in this thread have said, asking where an artifact has come from wont really help you. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
