------------------------------------

I really don't think this is an issue anymore. I think people can figure out there connections.

> Based on the number of problems we see reported on the User list relating to web proxies, I think this is an area we should attempt to address.
> I think we might seriously want to throw a little code in core-uber that is delivered with the installation that can attempt to access the Internet without any proxy, and then some more code that uses the settings.xml proxy info, to be used for debugging these kinds of situations.
> Then we can tell people, what does "mvn --internet" say?
