Hi everyone,
Nexus went in and is working without a hitch!  I'm proxying everything
through the single /public group and it's working well.

The only question I have now is how to lock down the proxying behaviour,
with respect to the workflow I mentioned previously.

Everyone points to /public although it's proxying for live, remote repos.
 I'd like Maven to error when something isn't found in the public repo,
rather than proxy through Nexus and download a new dependency we haven't
"blessed".

Do I just remove all repositories from the search list of the public group?

Rob
