yes, it's considered bad practice. That's the reason why I did like to get rid of our jboss repo references. Otoh, we still have them since some transitive dependencies of the JCDI TCK testing framework are only available there, and we used to have it for the main project too.
In the meantime Andrew pinged me that he and Chiba will go on uploading the artifact to sonatypes OSS nexus. So I have some hope again that it will hit maven.central in the next 2 weeks or so.
