Well, than, this is our support or the upstream one.
If maven powered rpms are not supportable ( ie patchable by us, rebuildable by us, and
inspectable by us, and anybody else ), then
we should not ship it in core. If one solution is to take random binary packages
without having built from the source code ourself and without being able to do
so for whatever reason, non-free is for that.
Sure, that's bad PR for java and maven. But we do some promises on what is in core, and
I think using maven and taking various jar from the internet do not let us fullfill
thees promises, this is a good enough reason to not ship them in core.
