I think you can override the location here: https://maven.apache.org/settings.html#simple-values
But I'm mostly a #gradle user so I not that familiar with the #maven side of things
Using joint observations from the #Tianwen-1 in the #solarwind and #MAVEN in the induced #magnetosphere, Lin et al. identified a magnetic barrier between #Mars’ #ionosphere and shocked solar wind under the radial #IMF for the first time.

Another great #FOSDEM talk from Michael Winser at @openssf / #AlphaOmega about the terrible economics of package registries like #NPM #maven #PyPi #RubyGems #crates
https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/8WJKEH-package-registry-economics/
Some charts from different registries are at https://go.xwind.io/registry-research-report
The slide below is a take on some of the common "solutions" that people come up with for funding registries (also applicable to non-registry products with large numbers of downloads) and what might happen if you choose them
Just caught up on this great talk at @fosdem #FOSDEM2026 from the people at @dangerzone about how to create reproducible containers images (with docker or podman) Definitely a few gotchas in there and stuff I wasn't aware with, but I have been wondering about this topic recently:

ah yes… being incompatible crap that can't use system installed versions because it breakes everything on each release and requires you to fix your build on particular version and stick to it… and install it each time is such a brilliant idea!
Especially in the current day and age, when something constantly breaks (aws, cloudflare…)
all hail fucking #gradle !
And yet #maven #mvn nicely trots along, upgrading in the background and I don't even have to think if it updated or not (save for the upcomming #maven 4 release, but it's like "one in a generation" kind of thing…)

For the last two years, we've been working on a new build tool for #Java, called #bld. It has now been added as one of the standard options to generate snippets in #Maven Central, the most popular repository of Java packages. Yay! 🥳

Announcing new-java-project… My Maven / Java best practices that helped me over the last couple of years and that I don't want to copy & paste anymore distilled into a Maven archetype:
