bug 7 December 2006 - Central repository isn't working for maven 1.0.x users

If you are using Maven 1.0.x you may have found that the repository is not working and Maven is unable to download new dependencies. The reason is that the ibiblio guys have moved the repo to another machine and Maven 1.0.x can't handle redirects across different host names.

The workaround is to use the new central repository configuration until ibiblio fixes the problem. Add to your project.properties : 

maven.repo.remote=http://repo1.maven.org/maven
