If someone has a maven.repo.local then I think Maven's normal mode of operation would execute. Bring down the missing jars and put them in the repository and create the classpath from the JARs in situ. This can be done with the normal ant tasks. No point in copying them around. If they don't have maven.repo.local then they get everything in the /lib directory. > No need to waste bandwidth. Nope. It was a first cut to try and make the vanilla ant build's work.

Not sure what's going with the timestamps, the checking is on and JARs don't come down repeatedly for me but Stephane has noted the same problem as you. The timestamp is supposed to be GMT so I imagine something isn't sync'd somewhere.
