Hi Toni, very good idea. I need a quiet moment to read and understand your proposal in detail, though...
Some other points I noticed while working on Pax URL 1.4.0 snaphots: - Maven repository handling is growing into a maintenance nightmare. Wiki, Javadoc and implementations are diverging, test coverage is insufficient, and the desired behaviour is unclear. - Is it necessary to parse settings.xml? Aether must have an API for that... - Do we need to hard-code the central repository URL? Where does Maven get it from - the Super POM? Does Aether or some other Maven component offer a suitable API? Would be good to see that cleaned up in Pax URL 2.x.
