It would be nice to not have to wait for someone to submit a request for a new jar to be put on ibiblio (that's how its done currently) before being able to use it in your own project. We've either set up a repository for or dropped in manually latest/greatest jars that we need just so that we dont have to wait for ibibilio.
A jakarta wide maven like repository would be awesome to this respect.
Since jakarta has a pretty easy to access repository already (http://apache.takiweb.com/jakarta/) it shouldnt be too difficult to add a few folders to make it maven friendly.

Perhaps, if Maven is widely adopted by Apache projects, it would make sense to set up an Apache based repository. Then projects would be able to directly publish their own jars.

I'm still not clear on how the whole ibiblio thing works. But, yes, we should be making our nightly snapshot JAR available someplace and updating it every day as part of an automated process. Ditto for any of our Commons JAR dependencies.
One question would be whether we should be distributing JARs from this server or not. Infrastructure is trying to limit the points of access for distributions.
