[keycloak-dev] Keycloak artifacts not in Maven Central

[Karel Piwko]

Quoting
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-central-repository-upload.html - 

Q: I have other repositories or pluginRepositories listed in my POM, is that a
problem? 
A: At present, this won't preclude your project from being included,
but we do strongly encourage making sure all your dependencies are included in
Central.

I believe its worth removing. Having *all* artifacts in two repo managers is
always better then relying on single one.
