[jira] Created: (MNG-2267) Introduction to Repositories contains incorrect information

Introduction to Repositories contains incorrect information
-----------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-2267
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2267
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Bug

  Components: Documentation: Introductions  
    Reporter: David Jackman


The Introduction to Repositories document contains some incorrect information.  I can't be certain everything that's incorrect (if I knew everything already I wouldn't have been reading the page), but here's a list of some things I'm pretty sure are incorrect or incomplete:

* Downloading from a Remote Repository talks about build.properties and project.properties, and I thought these were no longer used in Maven 2.

* Building Offline section should be expanded a bit.  It only makes sense if you already know what it's talking about.

* The example in Using the Internal Repository doesn't have a <url> element, which the previous example does have.

* These examples show the tags to use, but give no examples of values for these tags or explain what they mean or how to come up with values.

A start-to-finish example of creating a repository and setting a project/environment up to use it would be most helpful.  Would that sort of thing belong in this introduction document, or would it be better suited in one of the guide documents?
