Description Karel Piwko 2013-05-21 11:17:34 UTC
Despite the fact we distribute source distributions, those cannot be compiled without access to internal repositories (either WFK compilation + EAP plugins repository or MEAD repository).

We need to propagate that information visibly to our customers, likely in following form in documentation and/or sources distributions zips in a readme file:   

   On request, Red Hat shall provide customers of [PRODUCT NAME] with
   sufficient access to certain contents of our internal Maven
   repository to facilitate rebuilding of original or modified
   versions of components of [PRODUCT NAME]. Such access will be
   provided by Red Hat to the requesting customer without undue delay.

I think we could mention it in the release notes, specifically by adding an info box to Installation Notes -> JBoss Web Framework Kit Maven Repository Installation [1]. 

A readme in the ZIPs could be provided as well, independently of the mention in the docs.

And finally a bit more polished verbiage:

   On request, Red Hat will provide customers of [PRODUCT NAME] with
   access to certain contents of its internal Maven repository to 
   facilitate rebuilding of original or modified
   versions of [PRODUCT NAME] components. Such access will be
   provided to the requesting customer without undue delay.
