Once a pom for a dependency has been copied to the local repo, it is
never updated.

For those of you who maintain a company internal repo, do you ever have
the situation where a dependency pom in your internal repo differs from
the corresponding pom in the public repo?  (e.g. you want to record
additional info such as license information, or the public pom is not
correctly defined).

The problem I see is that it is difficult to ensure that a user is using
the correct pom.   

For example, if a user downloads maven, builds something with it, his
local repo gets populated.

Then, if the user tries to build my app, and I have defined a thirdparty
pom in my own internal repo that differs from the public one, the
original public version will be used (even if my app includes a maven
distro and a settings.xml specifying my own repo).

Any ideas on how to work around this?   I feel like I need control over
the repo, but cannot ensure that the user hits my repo first.
