Noel raised this issue, but I absolutely agree that projects should be
self-containing and not depend on contents of remote repositories.
This is not a nuisance and not to satisfy a single person, but to
solve an issue.

BTW, at my current customer's site, access to standard maven
repositories is blocked. This renders a great part of modern open
source projects useless. Great!  (James source distribution included.
It does not ship the stage directory while svn access is blocked, too,
of course.)
