Using Maven 3 with non-standard repository layout (Ivy)
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for working with a
non-standard repository layout?
Basically, I have a Maven 3 project but I need to fetch a fetch artifacts
from an Ivy repository.
http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/2.0.0/use/info.html
Can Maven handle this directly? If not, is there a way that I could put up
an "anti-corruption" repository as a proxy between Maven and the Ivy
repository that could transform one layout into the other (and cache the
results).
Any ideas are welcome.

I would guess that Ivy can work a lot better with Maven repositories than
Maven can with Ivy repositories. I would investigate a one-shot scripted
migration of your Ivy repo to a new Maven repo and force existing publishers
to the Ivy repo to configure Ivy to publish to the new Maven repo.
But I can imagine that it involves politics to make existing Ivy publishers
change their publish mechanism...

Thanks Robert,
Digging around led me to this option as well:
https://github.com/remis-thoughts/ivy-maven-plugin
Doing this isn't ideal, but more of a necessary evil for a proof of concept.
Thanks!

Maven 2 and Maven 3 both use the same structure for repositories ( which
is called a maven2 repo. Yes the name is a bit confusing ).
If you want Maven to work with a different kind of repository, e.g. ivy to
maven2, you need to use a repository manager.
The only one I am aware of that supports Ivy is Artifactory[1]
thanks,
Robert
