----------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Bug
      Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann

bq. From my point of view the Warning at the beginning should rather be an 
error. 
No, because the offending repository declaration might actually not be relevant 
to the project, e.g. because a repository manager is used instead.

bq. The reference to "future" versions is also quite misleading
The message from the validator has been improved. The last sentence is a 
general text that is meant to stress the importance of the previous warnings, 
encouraging users to actually fix the project instead of happily ignoring it.

> "legacy" repositories are silently treated as "default" repositories?

> Support for legacy repositories was removed for 
> http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4204 but if you now try to build 
> something were an artifact exists only on a "legacy" repository the build 
> will warn:
> [WARNING] 'repositories.repository.layout' for maven-repository.dev.java.net 
> uses the deprecated value 'legacy'. @ 
> ...
> [WARNING] For this reason, future Maven versions might no longer support 
> building such malformed projects
> but then the build just fails with a missing artifact message.
> Class org.apache.maven.repository.legacy.LegacyRepositorySystem has 
> explicitly:
>     public ArtifactRepository createArtifactRepository( String repositoryId, 
> String url, ArtifactRepositoryLayout repositoryLayout, 
> ArtifactRepositoryPolicy snapshots, ArtifactRepositoryPolicy releases )
>     {
>         if ( repositoryLayout == null )
>         {
>             repositoryLayout = layouts.get( "default" );
>         }
> ...
>     }
> So while the LegacyRepositoryLayout does not exist anymore, Maven will treat 
> the repository as Default-Repository and of course fail to find something.
> From my point of view the Warning at the beginning should rather be an error. 
> The reference to "future" versions is also quite misleading as the support 
> was already removed in the current version (-> 
> org.apache.maven.model.validation.DefaultModelValidator#validateRepository 
> reports that violation).
> What's the intended behaviour here?
