One possible way to do this is to provide an offline maven repository
that has all the required dependencies pre-fetched. The pre-warmed
repo is static, and can be retrieved and extracted during the
fetch-phase. Your maven build can then specify
"-Dmaven.repo.local=${WRKDIR}/local-repo".

The java/eclipse port uses this strategy.

Cheers.
