I just figured that we still pretty often use the java.net maven repositories. They are not well maintained and often lead to weird problems. Today I tried to compile tomahawk and got a weird exception that shale-master-1.pom is broken.
Had the same problem some time ago. I think what happened was that the specified repository location issued a redirect which was, for whatever reason, stored in my local pom file! I think what I did then was to manually download the pom.
Also, if we use Java JSR spec APIs we should always rely on geronimo spec jars [1] instead of pulling them from the java.net repo! Geronimo spec jars are always IP cleared which is _not_ guaranteed in the java.net repo.

We should upgrade tomahawk to myfaces-parent-9 and try to get rid of arbitrary <repositories>.
