Source artifact are in the maven repo for that exact reason.
But downloading stuff from the Maven repo is not as easy as getting it
from the Apache mirrors. Why should I have to get the binaries from
one place and the source from another completely different server?

I the situation you are in it won't buy you anything as the build
system is maven ...and it would need access to the network too.
Not necessarily; one can build up local copies of dependencies.
How you get work done in such an environment is beyond me :)
Not my environment luckily.
