Keeping maven-metadata* files out of the m1 repo

[Dain Sundstrom <da...@iq80.com>]

The maven-metadata files in the m1 repo can cause maven 2 accessing  
the legacy repository to break.  From what I understand (from the  
guys on #maven) these files shouldn't be in the repository anyway.   
I've cleaned them out the xbean directories, but a quick search of  
the repository gets this:

I think these files are added by the maven-one-plugin.  Can we flag  
these in the daily repo change emails?  Brett can we get the publish  
of these removed from the maven-one-plugin.

Sounds like a good idea for now.

Yep, please file a JIRA and someone will look after it. Technically,
they should be added, but it appears that they aren't working as
designed so removing them is the best workaround we have for now.
