Thank you. Very good suggestions!
I really like the idea of putting project-specific JARs in a separate repository. That will keep things much cleaner and clearer.

Hi Oscar and Randy
I would suggest that
+) you move your external libraries to a Maven repository
+) you might tweak the dependency section to use libraries with non-conforming naming convention (check out the docs). But consider to rename your external dependencies to have a version number otherwise you shoot yourself in the long run
+) it is always possible to reference multiple remote repository using "maven.repo.remote" in your global build.properties (check out the docs). So you can set up a company wide remote repo. If the library is generally useful you can request an upload to IBIBLIO and its mirrors
Cheers,

I have a related question.
Is it possible to upload a resource to ibiblio even if we are not related to
its development?
For example I use 'some-userful.jar' in an open source project.
The resource 'some-userful.jar' itself is open source but I am not its author.
I would find more convenient to have this jar in a central repository, like
ibiblio.

I am converting a project to Maven. This project has dependencies on many external libraries (JAR files).
Which is the preferred way to handle these:
* Create a /src/lib area for run-time dependencies
* Move the JAR files into the local repository
Examples of dependencies include Spring, aspectjrt.jar, imap.jar, etc.
I do not that some (most?) of these JAR files does not follow the naming convention that allows for automatic version management.

Randy
