maven-jaxb2-plugin was always distributed over download.java.net, I
never uploaded it to the Maven central repo.
You problem is probably due to the fact that
https://maven2-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository
is not a valid repository URL since months and should not be used.
dev.java.net suffered some technical issues lately so maybe they
turned down the URLs you were using.
https://maven-jaxb2-plugin.dev.java.net/ site lists correct URLs.
Bye.
