Technically I am unsure if this statement is true. At the time aether was extracted, maven3 was more or less functionally complete. Most of what has happened since then was bug-fixes. All this is slightly hypothetical, but we may be able to revert from r988749 (introduction of aether) and re-work from there. The integration test suite would pretty much tell if it's being done correctly. Do not underestimate the quality of those ITs. The code-bases are sufficiently similar that selectively re-implementing specific bugfixes is an option. Now why on earth would we do all that? Can someone please point to me to the *written* statement from the board that says we can't a) fork to "apache-extras" or B) fork the last asl version to "maven-extras" on github (together with plexus and sisu ?) I'm tired of all this word-of mouth crap I seem to be getting from management upstairs; and that includes all you ASF members.
