How often do you expect that to happen? The repository is central to the build infrastructure and needs to be very, very stable. Not only uptime, but as you're anticipating, not moving around too much. In practice though, changing the repo url once every few years provides an excuse to force projects who are lagging behind to update to the latest corporate parent pom and pick up all the new configuration you've tried to impose on them. ;) ) In any case you can reduce the need to change the repo url by putting something in front of it (VIP device, httpd as a proxy, etc.) -- Wendy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
