Here is how I've set it up:
What's the advantage of using mirrors? I don't. I just override
'central' and 'apache.snapshots' directly as repositories.
IMO, mirrors *should* fall back to the original url if the mirror
isn't available. That's not the way it's implemented in Maven right
now, though. Since I *never* want to contact central if my mirror is
unavailable, I override the id and provide a replacement URL.
By using mirrorOf *, I'm able to prevent nefarious POMs introducing
other repositories I'm not proxying.
And yeah, it's all kind of back to front definition-wise :)
