Hi Tamás, That would definitely be an option. But still you have to ask a final user to fire up the proximity server in order to build a simple project, unless proximixity does not need to be up and running. Basically I'd expect to have something similiar with ant where you could package an ant project and its dependencies and let a final user unpacks and builds the project without doing anything else. So I thought that creating a remote repo from a local one would help solve this issue since the target repo could be used and accessed via file protocol and be sitting on the client side. I will most likely follow your suggestions unless there's any plugin or tool that does the repo conversion.

So: 0. prepare "remote" repo content for proximity (collect artifacts you need for your build) 1. place proximity into "offline" mode and give it the prepared remote repo content 2. fire it up locally 3. redirect all reposes from m2 to local proximity (m2 settings.xml) These steps could be handled by your local package... The step 0. is easily implemted: erase local repo and erase proximity content and build agains proximity ONLINE. At the end of the build, you will end up with remote repo with the needed content, ready to package and redistribute. ~t~ On 5/29/07, Dário Luís Coneglian Oliveros <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi there, > > I've been reading several threads about having an offline internal repository > and I wonder if there's any maven plugin or tool that can help on this matter > as of now.
