[jira] Created: (MNG-4645) Move central repo definition to settings.xml

Move central repo definition to settings.xml
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-4645
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4645
             Project: Maven 2 & 3
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Paul Gier


The Maven central repository is currently a hidden default repository available to Maven.  The configuration of the central repo can be changed only if you know the (somewhat obscure) repository id "central".  It would be better if the configuration of the central repository was moved from the Maven internals to the default settings.xml.  This way the repository would still be available to a default Maven install, but would also be clear to users how the central repo is configured in case it needs to be changed for mirror settings or some other reason.  It would also make the repository ordering in the settings more clear.
