thanks a lot for this.
I'm not fully done with the port, but I was able to get this maven
repository to be pushed to github and the port downloads it and
compilation works as expected.
Thanks a lot for you answer, it helped a lot.

Now I need someone for testing the port, as I do not use it and are
therefor I'm not able to test it.

The final step would be to do some clean up a make the port more pretty.

I try later to write a short summary if some one else needs to build a
port with maven how it could be done.
