title: Why does Maven2 check for updates of stax-ex at every build?
body: <p>Maven2 checks for updates of stax-ex at every build. And it's just checking this single dependency, all other dependencies are updated only once per day.</p>
  
  <p>Maven2 output:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>artifact org.jvnet.staxex:stax-ex: checking for updates from java.net</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>stax-ex (groupid: org.jvnet.staxex, version: 1.2) is included as part of jaxws-rt (groupid: com.sun.xml.ws, version: 2.1.3). We have an artifactory repository as intermediary.</p>
  
  <p>What could I do? ( Building offline would be an unpopular work-around.)</p>
