Here's a legacy M1 repo:
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/

Notice the following negative attributes:

- flat directory structure (now imagine 2000 projects)
[DIR] javax.activation/                        10-May-2006 21:35      -
[DIR] javax.faces/                             10-May-2006 21:35      -
[DIR] javax.mail/                              10-May-2006 21:35      -
[DIR] javax.servlet/                           10-May-2006 21:35      -
[DIR] javax.servlet.jsp/                       10-May-2006 21:35      -
[DIR] javax.servlet.jsp.jstl/
etc

-versioning exists only inside pom/jar directories, not broken up into
different directories, see here for an example (now imagine 50
releases instead of 7)
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.faces/jars/

That's just what I've noticed between M1 and M2 repos. There are
certainly other differences as well.

Personally I find the M2 repo format a lot more scalable and
approachable. If you're only going to have a few projects with a
handful of releases each, then there's not necessarily a strong reason
to prefer M2 over M1, esp since M2 can read from M1 repos.

Ack, sorry. I did search, but apparently did not choose my search terms
wisely... just got an old message from last Oct. :-/

This does seem to be the case. Has anyone filed a feature request for this?

I definitely do not want to synchronize my repositories. There's just one
jar file that my M1 projects will need. I don't suppose there's any chance
Maven 1.1 (if it is ever released) would support downloading from a M2
repository?

What advantages does a M2 repository have, anyway? I assume there are some
features of M2 that a legacy repository couldn't support, but does anyone
know what?

I guess for now I'll have to manually deploy the jar file to the old
repository.

Thanks,
~Daniel
