Brett Porter commented on MNG-1902: ----------------------------------- actually, in the interests of reproducibility - we should probably just fail if it doesn't exist and force people to create POMs (and ensure it is 100% in central). Might need to be a policy in the <repository> element. > track attempted downloads and only re-attempt on certain intervals > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-1902 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1902 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Artifacts and Repositories > Reporter: Brett Porter > Fix For: 2.1 > > > currently, because files are not stored locally when not found, files are > always looked for. > OTOH, we don't want to store incorrect info, especially if it is permanent > (ie, not a snapshot). > We should track in the local repo metadata files that were not found and > when, and check again on intervals.
