Except in my case. :)

Since the tests reference the 3.1 snapshot, and I only have 3.1.1 and
3.2 bits in my local repo, I ran into the trouble. I agree that a
developer probably will have the correct bits present (if we change the
tests to reference 3.1.1/3.2), but I don't see the harm in adding the
repository element to grab it if missing.

After all, it's one of my hobbies to go to coffee shops, clean out my
repo, and build glassfish to hog the wifi network. (Am kidding.)

Cheers,
Bobby
