In case you missed it, I changed our validator dependency to 1.2.0-dev, which it really already was, but now it is enforced. Since most folks don't have a commons-validator-1.2.0-dev.jar lying around, I added my apache remote jar repository as an alternate for Maven to retrieve from. This repository contains the validator jar so folks don't have to checkout validator and build their own jar.
Is this ok, or is there a better way to handle this?

I would only suggest that rather than using Don's home directory, we use the non-mirrored Apache repository:

http://cvs.apache.org/repository/

If you edit your ~/build.properties and add lines like the below (editded for user name and private key file location) then you can use

maven jar:deploy-snapshot -Dmaven.repo.list=apache

to create a JAR and move it via SCP to the server. (Of course, if someone were doing a regular release, they would replace 'apache' with 'ibiblio-mirror', and of course, those names are arbitrary as long as the values in maven.repo.list match some defined maven.repo.X value.

I'd also suggest changing the order of "maven.repo.remote" to favor ibiblio.org, since for non-SNAPSHOT dependencies, Maven goes in order but stops as soon as it is satisfied. May as well minimize wasted HTTP calls to cvs.apache.org.
