I'd have to wait however long it takes the connection to time out, which
is not acceptable if I want to use an approach where I do builds very
often.
which is why you have to provide a -Doffline flag to make it faster.
Where things get complex is if a proxy is in the mix and the remote site
is still unavailable. You have to rely on the proxy server returning an
error of the right kind, not a 3 week old cached copy. As someone
trying to test SOAP interop, this is the bane of my life.
