Thanks, I looked at the Maven Release Plugin and I see that the logic of where Maven is installed is not in the Maven-Invoker, but in the release plugin [1]. There is some logic on how to 'find' Maven, using environment variables like 'maven.home', 'MAVEN_HOME' and 'M2_HOME'. Does this mean that the choice of which setting is used and in which order is still the responsibility of the calling plugin? Or is there some standard for that?
