[jbosstools-dev] JBoss Nexus Repository Indexer

[Paul Gier]

The JBoss.org team is now responsible for Nexus.  Nexus is supposed to
update the index immediately when new artifacts are deployed, but maybe
this isn't working correctly.

This artifact exists in the JBoss Maven repository (https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public-jboss), but the Nexus indexer includes this artifact up to version 4.16.0.Beta1. See the attached screenshot.
