Maven Update

There is a lot of work to do to update the version of Maven in Fedora.

Maven 2.0.8

While this version of maven is old, it is newer than what we have (2.0.4) and can hopefully be readied for Fedora 12. The main tracker bug is bug 429551. Be sure to file any issues that are a part of this work as blockers of that bug.

New Packages

Many of the below of "Pre-Review Requests". We should just turn them into full review requests.

Package Updates

maven-surefire -> 2.3

Maven 2.20

This is the most recent version of Maven (as of 2009-08-18). In order to simplify things, we have discussed the idea of splitting the Maven plugins into individual SRPMs. This will be a lot of initial work but will pay off by lessening long-term maintenance.
