According to this issue, the maven-gae-plugin released an update and it took several hours before this was available from Maven Central.

Maven central is handled by maven developers (Apache).

And it takes time to check if the new version of an artifact respects some conventions given by apache.

As said on maven.apache.org

The [..] process is mostly automated with turnaround time averaging 1 Business day.

  • sonatype.org - Central Sync Requirements
