Hi Everyone, The Maven Archiva team is pleased to announce the release of Archiva 1.0Beta 3.
Archiva is a build artifact repository manager for use with build tools such as Maven, Continuum and Ant. It has features like repository search and browse, securing repositories, identifying unknown artifacts and reporting of repository problems. Aside from these, it can also act as a nearby (proxy) cache of popular global repositories.
