[Cronometer-development] Re: Notes on Maven conversion

[Chris R. <of...@gm...>]

One more thing:  For a list of jars that we can get at without having
to do anything special at all, use http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/

The directory goes:=20
/maven/${groupId}/${type}s/${artifactId}-${version}.${type} for the
tags in the <dependency> element in the project.xml, so this tag:

<dependency>
=09<groupId>httpunit</groupId>
=09<artifactId>httpunit</artifactId>
=09<version>1.6</version>
=09<type>jar</type>
=09<url>http://httpunit.sourceforge.net/</url>
</dependency>

would translate into /maven/httpunit/jars/httpunit-1.6.jar

We have a private repository, too, and I'll eventually set one up on
sourceforge so I don't have to host it.
