> Maven can only retrieve an artifact from Nexus with a classifier with latest timestamp.
> Artifacts with classifiers with an older timestamp cannot be resolved.
> For example. If I deploy an artifact Apple with classifier A and a bit later deploy the same artifact with classifier B.
> Next I want to retrieve the artifacts from Nexus:
> For a module Banana, which needs Apple with classifier A the Artifact resolver will fail.
> For a module Strawberry, which needs Apple with classifier B the Artifact resolver will succesfully resolve the artifact.
> I found the cause for this behaviour:
> With an proxy between Maven and Nexus I could see the behavour of Maven, at the moment that I want to fetch an artifact:
> First the metadata.xml is fetched from Nexus. This file does contain the timestamp of the latest artifact in nexus and all timestamps of older artifacts, with different classifier.
> From this metdata file Maven figures out what the correct name is for the artifact.
> But Maven can resolve the name of classifierb, but not the name of classifierB. 
> The metadata is not correctly parsed! All information is there, but still Maven can only find the artifact with the latest timestamp.
> Here is an example of an metadata file:
> {code:xml}
>  <metadata modelVersion="1.1.0">
>   <groupId>com.ccv.systems.modules.gen_modem</groupId> 
>   <artifactId>modem</artifactId> 
>   <version>07.20.3-SNAPSHOT</version> 
>  <versioning>
>  <snapshot>
>   <timestamp>20120809.112920</timestamp> 
>   <buildNumber>97</buildNumber> 
>   </snapshot>
>   <lastUpdated>20120809112920</lastUpdated> 
>  <snapshotVersion>
>   <classifier>classsifierA</classifier> 
>   <extension>jar</extension> 
>   <value>07.20.3-20120809.112124-88</value> 
>   <updated>20120809112124</updated> 
>   </snapshotVersion>
>  <snapshotVersion>
>   <classifier>classsifierB</classifier> 
>   <extension>jar</extension>
