Thanks Niranjan, Barrie and Ron. The use of sudo account is needed pretty much due to policies and security restrictions. Though today finally my manager showed some willingness to try out some repository manager and we will begin with the open source edition of nexus. Ron, good to hear that you h

The other short answer is: Don't share your local m2 cache (~/.m2/repository) between developers. That is a bad idea because one developers "install" of snapshots will pollute the cache for everyone and give you something you dont expect. Local disk is cheap - dont worry about the waste. The cor
