Default repository question

[Matt Milliss]

This question is really just highlighting my ignorance of how maven 
works but I've been unable to find this documented anywhere. The problem 
I'm having is mavens use of repositories, I know maven by default uses 
the central repo at http://repo1.maven.org/maven2 when locating 
artifacts, I also have 3 more repositories defined in my settings.xml, 
these are http://download.java.net/maven/2,  
http://download.java.net/maven/1 and 
http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/. As far as I understand these 
are the only repositories my installation should be using but what I 
find is there are others that I haven't defined that are being used, for 
example http://www.jfrog.org/artifactory/[EMAIL PROTECTED], 
http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository, 
http://repository.codehaus.org and 
http://commons.ucalgary.ca/pub/m2-snapshots. Where do these repositories 
come from if I haven't defined them anywhere in my maven installation? 
One of the reasons I'd like to know is I'm setting up Archiva to proxy 
these external repositories and was surprised to find these extra 
un-defined repositories in use.

Cheers
Matt
