maven-aether-provider is in Maven-3 in github: 
http://github.com/bentmann/maven-3
it contains Maven-specific code, particularly everything to read Maven's 
pom.xml and maven-metadata.xml from remote repository.

It is an intended dependency, since aether is a repository/dependency container 
with pluggable systems: AFAIK, only Maven-3 provider is done for the moment, 
but the intent is to have at least P2 too.
If you don't give a provider to aether, you can't do anything concrete. And 
Maven support isn't hard-coded, like it would be a default system.

Hervé
