Never tried it myself but according to the Maven documentation you can set an alternative path to the settings.xml file when you invoke maven (-s switch). In settings.xml you can set the path to you local Maven repo.

Yes... that would work, thx for the suggestion. It's not really what I'm after, because (a) a completely separate maven local repo is a little heavy-handed, and (b) this would depend on my environment/invocation instead of location, which means I am prone to botch it, i.e. install artifacts built from area A as snapshot B and then have a confusing mess to clean up.

I'm now learning about Maven profiles [1], it look like they may be what I am looking for...

cheers,
