Hi there,

I was going to start hacking on Jenkins (actually on the 
gerrit-trigger-plugin) and Maven's “downlading the internet…” was taking 
much longer than it should be. I then noticed it stopped for minutes trying 
to resolve artifacts from maven.glassfish.org.
It turns out the server has been put offline in the last couple of days: 
http://java.net/projects/glassfish/lists/dev/archive/2012-02/message/118

As a workaround, I ended up hacking the downloaded POMs to remove the 
references to the repository: sed -i 
's|http://maven.glassfish.org/content/groups/public/|http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/|'
 
$(grep -R maven.glassfish.org ~/.m2/ --include '*.pom' -l)
It all went smooth after that, proof that references to that maven repo 
were not actually needed ⇒ bad practice (or were they really needed at some 
earlier point in time?)

Well, that just a FYI (with a little bit of rant); now back to hacking!

(and by the way, thank you so much for making Jenkins!)
