Passing the NMaven output to the console is fairly trivial, I did it a few
days ago.  If I remember correctly, when you invoke the CommandLine you can
specify a StreamConsumer which will consume the lines of output from the
CommandLine.  We can pipe the input that the consumer receives to the maven
console.  I think the more involved task it getting the nunit output where
we want it.

All of the NUnit code is under a zlib license, so we can modify the
nunit-console to do what we want. The issue of how we get .NET output to
the
output console that Maven is using is a general one that we haven't
tackled
yet. The IDE gets Maven output by using socket loggers, so that is one
approach. I think this is also where log4net may come into play, allowing
us
to use different appenders to output to sockets, messaging systems, etc,
for
logging interoperability.
