Sounds good, but this should also be integrated into the jboss.org site. Perhasp the rss feed is sufficient for that.

Another way is to allow developers to add thirdparty stuff to the snapshot repository, and then copy the required files to the release repository when a release is performed.

I still need the behavior of snapshot vs non-snapshot described better. We already have 'snapshot' releases in jboss and maven repositories. How does a snapshot repository come into the picture and help things. Layout the pros and cons.

Before doing that we need to get some of the existing mavenized projects fully working. The jbossxb project is in a essentially unknown branching state. The vfs project unit tests fail because the url handler system property settings are not getting passed to the test correctly.

I'm going to create a separate thread on this in the mc forum.
