I think you're getting it now! No worries :-) Ok, yes, you would
create these artifacts yourself and then publish them. You probably
would not have any luck getting them into Maven central so you'd want
a Maven Repository Manager (MRM) available. There are a few which are
freely available, I would recommend Nexus[1] or Archiva[2]; but
there's an alternate means if you do not want to go through the very
limited hassle.

You could also create a file system which is in the right format of a
Maven repository. Then you could just use mvn deploy to push them to
that file system using scp, e.g. Then your web server would sort of
act like an MRM of limited scope. It'd probably be easier to just set
up one of the aforementioned MRMs and be done with it.

You're picking it up quick, so that's always positive!
