Thank you Ron.  We already do the first.  We are considering the second, but 
for a repo with a very large number of artifacts this is somewhat impractical.  
To mitigate that, we may consider automating it.  Finally, knowing what to 
expect appears to present some problems to me.

Subject: Re: Setting Up Internal Repositories

Hard to say but checking the checksums from the author's site would be one way 
to vet a release from a third party.
Opening the download and looking inside to see that the artifacts are the ones 
that you were expecting is less secure but could be part of vetting.
