I don't understand your reasoning. maven m:co checks out using https and IIUC works for both committers and non-committers, and as a committer I can use that checkout as my working openejb copy. What is the advantage of preventing me from doing that? What harm would using https do to non-committers?
None, but I thought that svn:externals would mark the checked-out sources of OpenEJB as not-committable, i.e. no local modification could be committed. As Bill has explained, it's not true when you're in the openejb directory that wouldn't be any different than they're now. The only difference is that you wouldn't be able to commit your changes from the parent directory of the openejb dir (which is possible now). All in all, I was mistaken in my reasoning and am very grateful for your patience :-) On the other hand, Jason and Dave are working on publishing the updated jars to codehaus.org and it seems that it will likely turn out we won't have to introduce the change.
