so we need to support:

  • read only install
  • setttings in the installation
  • works with just the m2 executable in the path (no M2_HOME setting)
  • possibility of a remote settings file for standalone installs, force a regular (daily) check when online to push updates

encourage:

  • storing of install on a shared, read only drive
  • possibly use a CVS checkout
  • may want to integrate with existing deployment policies (eg an MSI that can be easily deployed)
