Any particular reason you don't exclude this dependency in you poms and
then pull in a version that IS available. Either the 1.1 version from
java.net:
http://download.java.net/maven/1/javax.activation/jars/

or the geronimo-specs version available at central:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/geronimo/specs/

(In general, I prefer the geronimo specs versions, but it doesn't really
matter)
