You can't, since all these jars from Sun where removed from ibiblio because of the license. Therefore my question, what did the other projects do with these dependencies? There must be others too, since this applies also to javamail, jdbc core, saaj, xmlprc, jaxr, ... > In particular, I know no official place to get that > evil jax-qname (which is just one class) nor did I find the version > in the web-services-packs I downloaded... They are in the j2ee 1.4 release. I created on a server a local Maven repository with the proper layout and file namesd to fullfil these dependencies. As alternative I could have used build.properties with something like maven.jar.override = on maven.jar.saaj-api = $(j2ee.home)/lib/saaj-api.jar ... But even this assumes the user run maven with -Dj2ee.home=Whaterver. > For all of them, I've put > http://java.sun.com/webservices/webservicespack.html as URL but I am > really no happy with it (it's also a 30 Mb download and an > "interactive installer"... not really the breeze of a maven download).

Hey, the Sun controles the live of an Apache, but an Apache (even if named Geronimo) does not control the course of the Sun ... ;-) IHMO you cannot solve the problem, you can only document it. So point the user for jelly-soap to j2ee 1.4 and add a link to the Maven overriding mechanism and/or the local repository layout in Maven's User Guide. Since the problem is not Jelly-specific, but a general problem with Maven, it might be interesting to improve that Guide regarding the Sun jars.
