Jason,
it looks like in beta-9 the repository was %MAVEN_HOME%/repository so by 
default it was shared by all the users on the same computer.
Now rc1 uses the user.home system property, not too friendly in windows 
as it has an awful name (c:\documents and settings\user) and doesn't map 
to the HOME directory but to the USERPROFILE one.
Friendliness is not the point, the point is that each user has a copy of 
the repository.
The solution used in beta-9 is better, IMHO.

Thanks,
Federico
