[jboss-dev] Maven repo aggregation

[Max Rydahl Andersen]

Paul G. and I are exploring to setup a Nexus repository 
manager....needed to get order in the jboss maven chaos we got right now 
;) Plus looking into
getting a similar setup for the productized binaries.

Problem right now is time and machine availability constraints - if you 
want to help out with this ping me :)
