   Offline Mode Design
   
  +* UPDATE: 18-April-2005
  +
  +  We cannot take the approach outlined below of detecting which remote 
  +  repositories are "really" offline, since offline mode is more of a behavior, 
  +  and this will lead to counter-intuitive results. A different feature may exist
  +  unimplemented, which is to detect when the network is down and provide better
  +  feedback for that case. However, when offline mode is declared, nothing 
  +  earmarked as remote should be accessed, regardless of whether it is actually
  +  a physically local resource.
  +  
  +  NOTE: One side-effect of this design change is that all offline-mode code can
  +  be isolated to maven-core, maven-plugin-descriptor, and [possibly] 
  +  maven-artifact. Usage of maven-wagon will be determined by an offline-aware
  +  manager.
  +
   * Assumptions: What is Offline?
   
     For the purposes of determining the areas sensitive to offline status,
