I agree with you, our releases should be built entirely from our own repository. Right now we just don't have an easy way to copy things from the central repo when dependencies are updated. I will work on a new maven plugin (if I can't find an existing one) that can be used to copy a project dependency hierarchy from the central repository to our repository so that we have everything we need. I can set up version 3 of the jboss-parent pom so that it will only use the jboss repository when doing a release. This should be part of our release process. I would also like to have a new jboss repository just for third party dependencies. So we will have a releases repository, third party repository, and snapshot repository (for use during development).
