I'm not sure if this got onto the maven groups radar.

I'd like to get feedback from the Maven group (or others who have access 
to ibiblio for deploying artifacts).

What is your position on managing/maintain a maven ropository locally 
here on apache servers that will be used to supply the ibiblio mirror 
with all our "Apache Artifacts"?

Are there any "local" Maven repositories in standard locations on 
servers like cvs.apache.org?
