Programmatically retrieve artifact

Hi,

Is there a way to, using the Maven Java APIs, retrieve all available
versions for an artifact without creating a POM file. I'm not interested in
writing a Maven plug-in for use in a POM file. Can I, for instance, create a
MavenProject, populate with groupId, artifactID, repositories, etc and
retrieve the artifact or versions of that artifact w/o creating a POM?

Cheers,
Marc

Maven projects require a POM or it is not a Maven project.

What are you really trying to accomplish?
