A dummy project is a good idea. I'll look into that.

The reason I can't just download jars from central is that I'm not in a
maven environment at run time. I build a ruby gem with the jars already
included, which I do by running 'mvn dependencies'. That requires me to
have a pom.xml, hence need for source checkout.
