You mean Integration or Nightly, right? Milestones we'd probably want to keep around as non-SNAPSHOT builds.
Also, the first thing I would like to see is just getting the settings.xml file setup and start setting up the Proxy's for the repos that the various Projects use. This way we can help cut down on the amount of download time there is for fetching artifacts.
I think it is good to come up with standards for group ids, etc, but the simpliest thing to get going first is the Proxying of the repos we need.
Do we know what maven builds have dependencies? All the Tycho stuff will resolve with P2. Also, isn't the point of 'orbit' to be the list-of-things that are needed outside of the Eclipse cloud, rather than anything on central? I'm all for having an orbit repository within the
maven.eclipse.org repository but we should consider whether we need to proxy anything else.
