[keycloak-dev] Keycloak artifacts not in Maven Central

[Stian Thorgersen]

Hosting on Maven Central means that folks can use Keycloak artifaces without having to add JBoss Nexus to their poms. So IMO it makes it slightly simpler to add Keycloak deps.

RestEasy is on Maven Central (http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Cresteasy) ;)
