Host an IBM-per-Customer Maven-Repository to download the WLP license files

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Currently, downloading the WLP license files (base/core) requires manual steps:

  • Logging in to IBM

  • Browsing through Download Central

  • Clicking through a set of sites

  • Downloading the license

  • Verifying the signature

  • Re-Uploading to our internal repository

This could be done easier by providing a repository per customer which requires a login (managed: technical users and IBM user IDs).
Each of these repositories would have the licence files hosted in a way that a company-internal repository can proxy/mirror those license files.

This saves probably hours of manual steps per customer each year.
