DOH! I retract that previous message. I forgot to open my VPN connection
first.
Putting <relativePath/> in the POM does work!
So, would it be unreasonable if Maven treated the absence of the
<relativePath> element the same as <relativePath/>. That would make it
more user friendly as far as I am concerned.
Also, it was m2e that built the original project POM, and it did not put
<relativePath/> in the POM.

It looks like Maven wants to download the Corporate POM because it
sees it in Nexus, but craps out because it does not like the Project
POM. Maven seems pretty certain that it wants parent.relativePath to
point to a local POM.
Is there a <userFriendly>true</userFriendly> switch I can turn on
somewhere in Maven ;-)

You just name the G/A/V and no relativePath, and Maven will download

Well, not exactly; if there is no <relativePath> element present, then
Maven behaves as though <relativePath>../pom.xml</relativePath> were
specified. If that file is a working copy that has not been
refreshed from
the SCM, then problems can ensue.
I recall that someone mentioned specifying a relative path like this:
<relativePath/>
...and that that was the only way to force Maven to truly resolve the
pom
from the repository, but I don't know if this is in fact true.
Best,
Laird
