Hello Boris.
Hi Bernd,

I know that opening a Nexus JIRA is the usual way to get responses.
Good point for the JIRA, Thanks!

BTW also consider scraping the SCM URLs from the POM files and contact the 
upstream Repos, the maven -src archives are often pruned down and not builtable 
(if present at all). So it does not hurt to archive them, but don’t expect them 
to help you in all cases.
We'll do that too, yes -- that's why we want to download all poms actually. And partial src jars are fine, since content will be mapped/deduplicated with the origins in git/svn/..

Sadly Tag parsing and SCM scraping is not the most reliable thing (we do it for 
consumed dependencies), but with some manual overwrite it’s manageable at small 
scale. Maybe you would get help if you provide such a Registry as a github 
project or ask OSSIndex for cooperation.
Hum, Interesting. May I ask why they're not reliable in your case, and what "manual overwrite" means? I realise that the scm attribute is not always/often present in the poms, are there any other caveats you encountered?

I didn't consider publishing the full list of poms, src jars or scm tags (they all can be extracted from the Maven Indexer indexes, see [1]) but if it is useful for others that's easily doable (besides getting help).

Thanks a lot for the thoughtful reply, cheers!
