Currently, the list of popular artifacts are downloaded at build time.
This is very good in terms of offline experience, but quite poor regarding evolutivity of solution.
It would be better to use the local file as a default value, overwritten by a remote version obtained at build start from aadarchi-technology-detector (and it's quite easy to do using commons-vfs).
So, in MvnRepositoryArtifactsProducer replace the reading of the mvnrepository.json file from the classpath by a read from the cache folder, where the cache folder is populated by default using the CLASSPATH version, but can be superseeded by a fetch from the github repository.
