and javax.mail

                 Key: MRM-237
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-237
             Project: Archiva
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Max Bowsher
            Priority: Minor


The "Getting Started" webpage contains the following text:

# Download the 1.0.2 activation zip from: 
http://java.sun.com/products/archive/javabeans/jaf102.html
# Unpack the zip to get the jar
# Run: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javax.activation 
-DartifactId=activation -Dversion=1.0.2 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=activation.jar
# Download the 1.3.2 javamail zip from: 
http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/downloads/index.html
# Unpack the zip to get the jar
# Run: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javax.mail -DartifactId=mail 
-Dversion=1.3.2 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=javamail-1.3.2/mail.jar 

However, it appears to no longer be true - I suppose that whatever dependencies 
required those versions of the artifacts have upgraded to newer, 
less-license-encumbered versions. (Though, manual download of 
javax.resource.connector 1.0 is still required).

I noticed this whilst building archiva starting with a completely empty local 
repository. No errors were generated regarding these artifacts, and after the 
build completed, the local repository contained javax.mail 1.4 and 
javax.activation 1.1.

Therefore, I think the 6 lines quoted above can simply be deleted.
