FYI, my testing included downloading the index from Central (to be
precise: its uk.maven.org mirror) with the staged Indexer 6.0.0. So, the
current code its able to consume the index currently produced for
Central, presumably by Indexer 5.x.

Hope that helps.

Best wishes,

Andreas

fwiw this all just points to the fastly cdn these days, so it's the same
thing you'll get using repo1.maven.org. (this url goes back to pre cdn when
we did actually have separate physical systems.

@Brian @Olivier
Release 6.0.0 is perfectly compatible backwards, so no need to publish with
6.0.0 to consume it with 6.0.0. The changed creators (like OSGi) were
anyway unused on central AFAIK, central publishes with "min" set of
publishers.

@Andreas
thanks!
