You should explain to your manager the costs incurred for using Maven
1.x will be higher because it's harder for our community to support
Maven 1.x at this point. There might be a few committers left here who
maintain Maven 1.x projects but I would imagine the interest is pretty
low here in Maven 1.x. So the burden of fixes to Maven itself when you
have problems will probably be yours.
Yours is the first request I've heard to convert from Maven 2.x to
1.x. As such I don't even know if there are any tools around. There
might be but I don't recall there being any. Probably easy enough to
take on the existing tools and go the other way.

I know this seems like a strange request, but what is the best way
to convert a Maven 2 project to Maven 1? Our development team was
going to start to move to Maven 2, but the plans have changed.
Unfortunately, I've already built all of my code using Maven 2. I
need to know how to convert my various projects to Maven 1. That
includes changing the directory structure to leave out the "main"
directory folder between the "src" and "java" folders, as well as
any other directory differences that I might not be thinking of at
the moment. Thanks.
