I am trying to figure out whether it is possible to configure my own nexus in front of public maven central and white-list which artifacts are available for internal projects.
so this is some kind of security layer, to make sure developers will not reference and pull some version or some artifacts that are not reviewed. but maybe there is a better way to achieve this.
right now all trusted jars are checked into repository, so this would be a step into better dependencies management while maintaining strict list of reviewed artifacts.
thanks for any ideas,
