> I stumbled on [~dgolovin]'s patch for livreload at https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-livereload/pull/54/files
> This is not the first time i've seen skip having to be enabled for plain normal mvn dependencies.
> skipRequirements are supposed to only cover big downloads (like EAP, jboss etc.) - things done via non-maven download mechanism.
> Why is this applied to mvn dependency downloads ? 
> The culprit for needing this line is at:
> https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-build/blob/master/parent/pom.xml#L397
> and a bugzilla (*not* jira?!) is referenced as the reason for this back in 2012: https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-build/commit/2e18baaf88e0cd73b3b99885658e00789e8fd198
> I understand why the explicit google download plugin (why is there two versions used btw?) but why is skipTests controlling normal mvn dependency download ? Which requirements are using this for download ?
