Dimitar Dimitrov commented on MNG-2608:
---------------------------------------
I would suggest to NOT require specification of artifactId. The use case for
this is for projects that publish many modules under the same groupId
(org.mule, org.springframework come to mind).
> configure a repository as the 'preferred' download location for certain
> artifactIds or groupIds

> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2608
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Artifacts and Repositories

> Fix For: 2.1.x

> ivy has this feature where you can tell it where an artifact is located.
> During dependency resolution, this avoids a lot of unnecessary http lookups
> to the configured repositories while searching for the artifact because it
> will go straight to the correct one.
> in pom speak:
> <repository>
> <releases>
> <enabled/>
> <updatePolicy/>
> <checksumPolicy/>
> </releases>
> <snapshots>
> <enabled/>
> <updatePolicy/>
> <checksumPolicy/>
> </snapshots>
> <id/>
> <name/>
> <url/>
> <layout/>
> <preferredFor>
> <groupId>org.apache.cocoon</groupId>
> <artifactId>my.special.artifact</artifactId>
> </preferredFor>
> </repository>
> If the groupid or artifactid was not found on the 'preferred' server then you
> could still try and contact the other configured repositories ofcourse.
