Hi Lee, I did already notice you were moving this project to M3. IMHO I think we should try to support as many Maven versions as possible. It's not just up to us to force developers to move to the most recent version of Maven. For instance: companies might have locked their Maven version for certain projects. Reasons to move to a newer version of Maven would be: - Bugs in Maven which might cause the plugin to fail. - Maven-API changes which are required for certain fixes/improvements of the plugin. btw, this counts for any type of newer versions (major-updates, minor-updates, incremental-updates). I hope you have good reason to switch to M3, but I'd suggest to depend on Maven 3.0 instead of 3.0.1 (unless one of the above reasons forces you to use 3.0.1) -Robert

I just converted all my plugins to use as little the maven-compat aspects as possible. Any other mojos doing this yet? If not, it might explain the lack of docs.

ArtifactFactory and ArtifactMetadataSource for instance. http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVENUSER/Mojo+Developer+Cookbook Another one I use a lot is WagonManager. I poked around the maven source code for about an hour and couldn't figure out what replaces ArtifactFactory. Anyone else going to Maven 3.0 run into this or just ignore the warnings...
