repo1.maven.org?

Hi all,

I hope this isn't a really stupid question, I'm pretty sure what I'm
asking is valid but I realise that I'm a somewhat inexperienced maven
user so am happy to be 'guided' (instructed to RTFM) if that is
appropriate!

Who maintains jars and metadata on repo1.maven.org? Specifically,
there are several releases on repo1, but the meta data isn't up to
date. The listing of
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/sun/xml/bind/jaxb-impl/ has:

 1.0.5/ 04-Jan-2007 13:18 -
 1.0.6/ 04-Jan-2007 13:18 -
 2.0.1/ 04-Jan-2007 13:18 -
 2.0.2/ 04-Jan-2007 13:18 -
 2.0.3/ 04-Jan-2007 13:18 -
 2.0/ 04-Jan-2007 13:18 -
 2.1.3/ 01-Oct-2007 02:49 -
 2.1/ 04-Jan-2007 13:18 -
 maven-metadata.xml 28-Jun-2006 17:50 306
 maven-metadata.xml.md5 04-Jan-2007 13:18 82
 maven-metadata.xml.sha1 19-Jul-2006 08:20 137

but the metadata only contains the following versions:

 <version>2.0</version>
 <version>1.0.6</version>
 <version>1.0.5</version>
 <version>2.0.1</version>

This means you cant use version ranges with JAXB. Is it possible to fix this?

Secondly, http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/sun/xml/bind/jaxb-impl/2.1/
contains the EA version, surely this should be the final release?

Can someone tell me who is responsbile for keeping this stuff current
and correct, and what (if anything) can I do to help?

cheers,
dim
