Fine with me. 2. Dependency declarations are inconsistent.

If we have, or can get, our M2 build to at least the functionality of our M1 build, I'd be in favour of dumping the M1 build now. Q.

I'll trust Wendy on this one, since I haven't gone and compared what we have in M1 to what's available in M2. The array of plugins available for M2 is mind-boggling, though. Q. How many other committers are committed to learning and perfecting > our Maven 1 and/or 2 builds? I have been spending a *lot* of time with M2 in my day job recently, including writing some tricky custom Mojos, so I'm certainly up for helping out with the M2 build. As for M1, now that I've got my head around M2, I'd prefer not to try to keep two versions of Maven in my head. ;-) -- Martin Cooper Q.
