Description of problem: The Maven repo zip should contain a README file with the information about the repo, how to use it, etc. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.0.0-CR2
We plan to have official documentation in one of the guides on how to use the maven repo. Turning this over to the docs team.
This has now been documented in the Installation Guide for BPM Suite [1]. Note that since the Maven repo is part of the overall suite of JBoss Integration products, this topics is shared between JBoss DV and JBoss FSW and therefore contains steps for those products as well. Moving this to ON_QA.

Documenting the Maven repo usage in the official docs is great. However I think we should include also the README file inside the repo zip. If you, for example, download eap-6.1.1 repository or wfk-2.4.0 repository, they both contain README file explaining basic steps needed to install/use the repo. Is there a reason to _not_ provide such file in the repo zip?
Initially we had the notion of one maven repo for all integration products (that's what you see in http://maven.repository.redhat.com/techpreview/ip6/ ) but then we dropped this and started to ship a separate repo for each product. Hence I'm not sure if "JBoss Integration Maven Repository" is valid any more, I don't think we depend on any component from FSW or DV, only EAP6.
The README is not part of the zip distribution. I am not sure if it should or sould not be included. In case the it should not, please close this BZ as not a bug.
Verified fixed in 6.0.2.ER3, simple README is included.
