I read that I could use a repository manager such as nexus or archiva to download artifacts from a maven 1.x repository to a maven 3 repository, and for the most part I can. The only issue is that jar artifacts of <type>ejb</type> (which can be stored under the maven 1.x repository layout of groupId\ejbs, instead of groupId\jars) cannot be downloaded through the proxy 1.x repository I set up in Archiva.
It appears that Archiva and Nexus both have the same problem where they cannot cannot find jar files in the \ejbs legacy directory. I understand that maven 3 doesn't support the 1.x legacy layout but this page seems to imply that I could use a repository manager: http://maven.apache.org/repository-management.html Is it just not possible to fetch the dependencies from the legacy \ejbs layout into maven 3? Thanks, Jaime
