Anders Hammar commented on MEV-653:
-----------------------------------

Brett and Wendy,

thanks for looking at this. I have no problem verifying the deployed poms wioth 
the ones in svn. The problem is though that doing this locally for one 
company's use isn't good enough I think. I currently have two customers that 
want to verify the signatures.

Would it be possible (out of a technical perspective) to replace the signatures 
on central? I guess this could be done for the poms that are possible to verify 
without replacing them. The jars would be more difficult to do this for...

So, I'm looking for a long term solution for everyone, not just for one 
specific customer.
