We recently encountered a strange Maven build error and the root cause turned out to be that the com.sun.jersey:jersey-project:1.1.4:pom artifact differs on Maven Central and java.net. In particular, on java.net (http://download.java.net/maven/2/com/sun/jersey/jersey-project/1.1.4/jersey-project-1.1.4.pom) the pom.xml defines two repositories (http://download.java.net/maven/1 and http://download.java.net/maven/2) and the same two plugin repositories, while on Maven Central (http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=com/sun/jersey/jersey-project/1.1.4/jersey-project-1.1.4.pom) the pom.xml only defines the second plugin repository; there are no repositories defined.
Is there a recommended way to reconcile the differences in a non-SNAPSHOT numbered artifact between Maven Central and java.net so that others don't experience my pain? Kyle Blaney
