Works here, something is wrong on your site:

Strange I can get both the POM and the JAR with curl/wget. I found I can install the file to the local repository manually:

wget https://gerrit-api.commondatastorage.googleapis.com/release/com/google/gerrit/gerrit-plugin-api/2.8/gerrit-plugin-api-2.8.jar
mvn install:install-file \
    -DgroupId=com.google.gerrit \
    -DartifactId=gerrit-plugin-api \
    -Dversion=2.8 \
    -Dpackaging=jar \
    -Dfile=gerrit-plugin-api-2.8.jar

And now I can build singleusergroup! Thanks for your help!

weird.

You are wellcome.
