Maven is currently design to allow any number of projects to share a common repository of JAR files. However, as a consultant I believe that trying to get our clients to set up a centralized repository doesn't make a lot of sense.
I propose that we allow maven to look in multiple directories for its libraries. The intent would be to allow jar files to be shipped with the source code. It might work by adding another property such as project.repo or maven.repo.project to a local directory (probably within the project) where the jar files could be found. Alternatively, we could modify maven.repo.remote so that it takes relative paths on the local file system or even create a maven.repo.local. I would favor creating a maven.repo.project that maven doesn't copy to the shared repository (lib.repo). Any thoughts?
