Leo:
I think its even easier that what you describe - I'm currently planing around with a repository chain in which the general approach would entail setting up an avalon repository.
E.g.
maven.repo.remote=http://avalon.apache.org/repository,http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/

so would it make sense to have http://avalon.apache.org/repository contain the avalon jars & dists?
Yes - I've been thinking about the same thing just today.
It is probably easy as hell for the maven peeps to do a
ssh daedalus.apache.org
cd /www/avalon.apache.org/repository
scp -r * wherever_it_goes_on_ibiblio
on request, so that ibiblio can remain the primary point of distribution. All this just temporarily until the infrastructure peeps and the peeps looking at a common repository hammer out something more solid.
are other ASF projects doing or considering something similar? thoughts?
In the longer term I would like to see ibiblio requests reditected to an avalon repository. I've only recently started playing with the <groupId/> tag and from that there is a logical point for redirection (assuming all avalon content is packaged under well know avalon identifiers - e.g. avalon, excalibur, corenerstone, phoenix, merlin, etc.).
Cheers, Steve.
