We don't use ibiblio at all.
Having Maven pull stuff down for production builds causes certain IT
security types to wake up in a cold sweat.
Why? The versions are all specified in the poms, and that's exactly
what gets pulled down. It's not like the build is just grabbing
random stuff. And if you really don't want anything to get downloaded
for a certain build, type "mvn -o" (where 'o' stands for "offline").
Personally, I think this gives "certain IT security types" more
control, not less.
I don't know if this is what we're seeing here - but one to watch for.
Hopefully the above explanations help ease these concerns.

It builds on my home machine. We'll have to investigate what is
happening behind our firewall although we did try navigating to the
download sites in IE so it isn't a simple "cannot connect" issue.
However the tests are hanging. I get a lot of
java.util.concurrent.RejectedExecutionException. Carl, are you seeing
those in your logs or are you seeing different problems?
