Configuring a proxy

 You can configure a proxy to use for some or all of your HTTP requests with Maven. The username and password are only
 required if your proxy requires basic authentication (note that later releases may support storing your passwords in
 a secured keystore - in the mean time, please ensure your settings.xml file (usually $\{user.home\}/.m2/settings.xml) is secured with permissions
 appropriate for your operating system).

  The <<<nonProxyHosts>>> setting accepts wild cards, and each host not to proxy is separated by the | character. This matches
  the JDK configuration equivalent.

  <proxies>
   <proxy>
      <id>example-proxy</id>
      <active>true</active>
      <protocol>http</protocol>
      <host>proxy.example.com</host>
      <port>8080</port>
      <username>proxyuser</username>
      <password>somepassword</password>
      <nonProxyHosts>www.google.com|*.example.com</nonProxyHosts>
    </proxy>
  </proxies>
  .

</settings>

 Please note that currently NTLM proxies are not supported as they have not been tested. You may be able to use the
 relevant system properties on JDK 1.4+ to make this work.
