Hi,

Haven't had any problems generating new maven projects until today.  This
simple command line:

mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app

fails with:

[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.

GroupId: org.apache.maven.archetype
ArtifactId: maven-archetype-quickstart
Version: RELEASE

Reason: Unable to determine the release version

Try downloading the file manually from the project website.

Then, install it using the command:
    mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.maven.archetype-DartifactId=m
aven-archetype-quickstart \
        -Dversion=RELEASE -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file
there:
  mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=org.apache.maven.archetype-DartifactId=maven
-archetype-quickstart \
        -Dversion=RELEASE -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file \
         -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]


  org.apache.maven.archetype:maven-archetype-quickstart:jar:RELEASE


I'm still a bit green with maven, is there something fundamental that I'm
missing or is this a transient error?

Cheers,
Craig
