You can set this in your settings.xml file to globally use a certain mirror, however, as written on Maven's site, it seems common for a project to customise the repository in their pom.xml.
First of all, thanks to Jerome and his team for setting up this Maven repository.
I would recommend to put the repository definition in the parent POM for cases where the project in question is to be checked out by future users that don't necessarily know a lot about Restlet. For instance, most open source projects would fall under this category. In that way there would be no magic file in the home directory to edit, mvn install would work right out of the box as with most other Maven-based open source projects the developer has previously encountered.
