Does this page need to be marked out of date since it was pulled from
2.2.0?
I was also thinking further about this - what extent would separating
the resolution metadata in the repository from the POM help?
I think this has been mentioned before - so if a 4.0.0 POM in the
current format, transformed as discussed, with minimal information
from the POM required for resolution is deployed to the current
location and the original POM (in whatever format) is pushed alongside
it as part of the release - would it overcome the main issue? I'd need
to refresh myself on the touchpoints.

2.2.0?
