Description
At our company we use artifactory as our repository manager and everybody is required to use this as the only way to download maven artifacts. However, whenever a repository is added to buildr's build script, it will query that new repository as well as the one specified in the buildr yaml file, bypassing the company policy.
Using company repositories is a best practice for several reasons: less dependency on external servers falling down (remember the maven1 days and ibiblio?), less load on Maven's central repository, and control over what repositories are acceptable for use at a company level.
Basically I'm asking for support of the Maven setting described at http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-mirror-settings.html
