title: Sonatype nexus - what does published mean
body: <p>In my internal Sonatype Nexus, on the routing tab of a repository (Codehaus Snapshots for example) is says </p>
  
  <pre><code>--- Publishing ---
  |   Status: Not published
  |   Message: Discovery in progress or unable to discover remote content (see discovery status).
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am able to Browse Remote, but unable to Browse Index.</p>
  
  <p>What <em>exactly</em> is meant by the term "published"?</p>
  
  <p>Is this repo not available to my maven clients? They use <code>&lt;mirrorOf&gt;*</code> and get all artifacts from Nexus.</p>
  
  <p>This seems a brain dead question. I've looked here, and in the Sonatype book, online sonatype documentation, and scraped Google, to no avail.</p>
