You've 2 options. The first is to get the latest CVS checkout of Maven and then build it. e.g. via ant -f build-bootstrap.xml then that will create a new maven build with the latest, greatest Jelly embedded. Then you'll just need to swizzle you're MAVEN_HOME and PATH statements to point to the new Maven build. Or you can just manually install the latest, greatest Jelly inside Maven via manually downloading the latest Jelly snapshot from... http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/commons-jelly/jars/ and manually copy it into your $MAVEN_HOME/lib directory (deleting the old Jelly library). The former option, if you can do it, is safer as then you can easily switch from a stable release to the latest & greatest Maven by just changing your MAVEN_HOME and PATH environment variables.
