Publish javacv and cppjars to a public Maven repository

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It's currently annoying to integrate javacv in a product since it requires some 
steps to make it available as a Maven artifact.
It would be convenient to make it available on a public repo, such as 
oss.sonatype.org.

It's kind of annoying to figure out how they want us to put things on that 
repository as well. If it's something you'd like to investigate, please do let 
me know! I'm sure others would appreciate, thanks

If you do undertake this task, please keep in mind that ideally we would also 
like to have binary artifacts for at least OpenCV. Although we can put them in 
(unofficial) JAR artifacts, OpenCV itself can't be built from source with Maven 
(it uses CMake), and moreover the source code isn't Java either. So it is 
something Sonatype would accept anyway? I have no clue

Looks like we can upload pretty much anything we want to that repository after 
all. SWT and LWJGL have native libraries, but it's obviously not possible to 
build them from their pom.xml files:
    http://search.maven.org/#browse%7C-197700098 
    http://search.maven.org/#browse%7C-571895886 
So if anyone would like to take on this responsibility to maintain nice little 
artifacts, please let me know! Thanks

FYI, this is planned for JavaCPP Presets:
    http://code.google.com/p/javacpp/wiki/Presets
And not just for OpenCV.

It's finally been done! Starting from JavaCV 0.8, everything is now available 
from the Maven Central Repository:
    http://bytedeco.org/release/2014/04/28/first-release.html

Incidentally, the project is now hosted on GitHub:
    https://github.com/bytedeco/javacv
