Donald Woods commented on GERONIMODEVTOOLS-181:
-----------------------------------------------

Well, we could never agree on a "central" location for the artifacts the server 
needed (so I don't see it happening for this anytime soon) and we ended up 
checking them into the svn repo, which is PITA for these large Eclipse 
zipfiles....
If you try to build the 1.2.0 plugin from source, its broke because some 
required artifacts were removed from people.apache.org, so I'd rather see us 1) 
pull them from the Eclipse mirrors or 2) pull them from the svn repo
Placing them on other locations without proper controls/processes in place, 
will continue to create releases which can't be built a coupe months after they 
are released.....
