The maven-proxy doesn't help much on Monday mornings.   The rest of the 
week it's OK.   We have the timeout for snapshots set at 48 hours.   If 
no-one does anything over the weekend (and this was a holiday weekend so 
no-one did), then the caches are pretty much moot on Monday.   

It was kind of amusing (not) this morning when we all came in.   There 
were four of us trying to build and each of our builds were failing at 
different spots.   Each would get a little bit further.   All while 
trying to check the snapshot server.     By the afternoon, we were pretty 
much all set, but I really don't want this to happen everyweek (or on 
Wednesday when the timeouts from today start expiring).

We used to have the same problem with ibiblio (and even the mirrors) so we 
started rsyncing ibiblio local.  Now we don't have problems with that, 
just the apache snapshot server.  (the codehaus snapshot server is much 
better behaved)

Thanks!
