maven-aether-provider is in Maven-3 in github: http://github.com/bentmann/maven-3 it contains Maven-specific code, particularly everything to read Maven's pom.xml and maven-metadata.xml from remote repository.
It is an intended dependency, since aether is a repository/dependency container with pluggable systems: AFAIK, only Maven-3 provider is done for the moment, but the intent is to have at least P2 too. If you don't give a provider to aether, you can't do anything concrete. And Maven support isn't hard-coded, like it would be a default system.
