[jira] Commented: (MNG-2408) Following "How do I make my first Maven project?" doesn't work

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2408?page=comments#action_68318 ] 

Brett Porter commented on MNG-2408:
-----------------------------------

ok, usually it's a configuration error (you have a proxy that isn't configured).

Since it's not the case, it must have been an intermittent issue with ibiblio, which caused a metadata error. This is a known issue (probably filed elsewhere).

I'll assign this to 2.0.5 for now, but we should try and find the original issue.
