Comment (by jive):

 Yep, the `geonetwork-cache` seems very troubled, collecting zero byte
 files on a wide range of topics?!?

 * https://repo.osgeo.org/#browse/browse:geonetwork-cache

 Going to focus on this configuration for now.

 * cleanup policy does not allow me to remove based on size (ha!)
 * It is a cache of https://github.com/geonetwork/core-maven-repo
 * GitHub provided guidance that using GitHub as a maven repository was
 impolite; and the project moved to repo.osgeo.org two years ago.
 * I assume GitHub cut off the use even as a cache yesterday, and the
 resulting madness has geonetwork-cache collecting timeouts and zero sized
 files for everyone.

 I am going to take geonetwork-cache out of `release` for now.
