Reliable means:
1) It can be trusted
2) Its downtime should be very low and the performance should be reasonable
3) It will be available forever:-) (when we have released artifacts that
reference the repo, we create a hard dependency for the maven build on it)
If an artifact is not available in the maven central or any reliable
alternatives such as java.net, I prefer to have own control like other
Apache projects do (Geronimo, ServiceMix, Axis2 etc).
Thanks,
Raymond

Reliable as in "does it go down regularly" or as in "can it be trusted"?
We already have 9.0.02 SAXON at:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/maven/net/sf/saxon/
We would have to ask Mike why he chose 9.x
If newer versions are needed, we can deploy them to our maven repo in SVN
too.
Why do we want to maintain a maven repo for artifacts that are
available elsewhere?
