ability to include ivy settings for a resolver using that resolver (on-server 
ivy settings file)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: IVY-695
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-695
             Project: Ivy
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-beta-1
            Reporter: Jason Trump
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: unspecified


loading resolver settings using the resolver itself can simplify client 
configuration.  the initial discussion on the development list can be found 
here:

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ant-dev/200801.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

this feature is similar to the current settings include directive (see 
http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/configuration/include.html) 
with the following key differences:

1.  use of any resolver implementation to retrieve the settings, not just http 
or local filesystem
2.  settings files loaded this way are stored in the artifacts cache
3.  the loaded settings apply to a specific resolver

See also the above-linked mailing list thread for techniques to get this kind 
of behavior with the current implementation.  The intent of the feature is to 
reduce the amount of configuration / ant code required to achieve the stated 
result.
