 ASF Repository   -- has a mailing list.  Is mostly concerned with the

Just the wiki http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ASFRepository
 Depot @Incubator  - tools for using the Repository spec.  Includes Ruper
                     (not very familiar) and anything else?
 

Ruper and Version
Ruper is for Resource Updating.
For example this is now (Mostly) working
<typedef resource="*org/apache/ruper/ant/antlib.xml*" />
 <repository id="*maven*" url="*http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/*"; 
remote="*true*" />
- <#> <ruperset id="*jars*">
 <resource name="*log4j*" ext="*jar*" version="*1*" 
repository="*maven*" />
 </ruperset>
- <#> <path id="*ruper.sample.libs*">
 <fileset refid="*jars.fileset*" />
 </path>
- <#> <target name="*compile*">
 <mkdir dir="*build/classes*" />
- <#> <javac srcdir="*src*" destdir="*build/classes*">
 <classpath refid="*ruper.sample.libs*" />
 </javac>
 </target>

 Repository @Avalon- A tool for downloading artifacts from a maven-style
                     repository.  Can also make classloaders and use 
                     Factories.  http://avalon.apache.org/repository/

 

Unsure.
