Description

when using maven from behind a proxy, it cannot connect to download

The maven/java stuff will not use the system proxies unless explicitly told to do so, which is a problem when maven tries to download the jars it needs

Basically, I need the following option added to the java command line:
-Djava.net.useSystemProxies=true

Sun did not see to make this the default because of backwards compatibility, which is a right PITA, but anyhow
