That's interesting, thank you. I will look into this API. Is there a way to know, however, if the user has initiated a full directory scan from the UI, so that I might recreate the metadata.xml from scratch?

I of course have a need for this OBR support, and would think it wonderful if Archiva shipped with support by default, yes! The OBR metadata file can get rather large, so I had thought long term I'd need to add support for only including the latest versions of all artifacts in the published file. I did license my code as GPLv2, but would be happy to switch that to an Apache license if that would be helpful. -- m@
