Fail to resolve dependency javadrone-api-1.2

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Clone and Build javadrone and make sure that javadrone artifacts are 
installed in local Maven repository.

  NOTE: Build (mvn install) fails at first due to an unresolved dependency to the hidapi-1.0 jar artifact.
  Assuming that the cause of this issue is absence of a remote Maven repository for javadrone-related artifacts, this issue was overcome by manually copying the missing artifacts to my local Maven repository.

2. Create a minimal Maven project and add javadrone-api as a dependency of the 
newly created Maven project:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.codeminders</groupId>
        <artifactId>javadrone-api</artifactId>
        <version>1.2</version>
    </dependency>

3. Try to build the newly created project (step 2)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It is expected that the dependency to javadrone-api-1.2 resolves, given the 
structure found in local Maven repository:
