It's all just on my local machine, so there's not much to look at.
It's mostly a textual replace of org.codehaus.plexus.utils with the new
package name. There's a few interesting points
I can mention already:
1. HelpMojo generated by plugin-tools uses plexus. Switching to m-s-u will
effectively make every plugin m-s-u dependant.
2. Invoker has an implicit import of plexus-utils into the bean shell
scripts (and probably others) being used to verify.
In this case it feels correct to just add m-s-u side by side.
3. I have not looked into the plexus relationship for modello generated
code but there seem to be some bindings there too.
