Hello Rob,
'central' seems down and is always slow anyway :S Try adding a mirror to
your ~/.m2/settings.xml. I'm using ggi-project.org as shown below..
<!--
mirrors
Specify one or more mirrors to use for central (or any
other repository defined by the project).
-->
<mirrors>
<mirror>
<id>ggi-project.org</id>
<url>http://ftp.ggi-project.org/pub/packages/maven2</url>
<mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
</mirror>
<!-- mirror>
<id>planetmirror.com</id>
