Hi Olivier, I like archiva, because it's simple and lightweight comparing to nexus and artifactory. It has some advantages to the other two main repository implementations: - You can deploy it on any application server (e.g. we use it on WebSphere) - it does not claim to be a "multipurpose all providing" repository, it's only a simple maven repository with a basic set of permission roles - it's completely open source
There are some issues that could/should be solved but I think it's ok, when there are no major changes the next time. I'm willing to help (I have already sent some pull requests via github) and looking forward to suggestions what could be improved. I must say, it was very easy to setup the build environment. The maven build and tests are working very well. And the code where I had to investigate some issues was clear and understandable (great work!). So if I can help, feel free to contact me. I'm subscribed to the mailing lists already.
