I didn't know that.

 Why would we need to post maven
1 jars into a maven 2 repository?

Well, if you're creating a Maven 2 project now, and you use the group
ID "geronimo", you know this is going to have to change as soon as 1.2
is released.  It might be nice to be able to go ahead and use the new
Geronimo 1.2/Maven 2 group IDs like "org.apache.geronimo.modules" for
1.1 as that would stay valid for 1.2 and beyond.  So if we put the 1.1
JARs in a Maven 2 repo with the group ID "org.apache.geronimo.modules"
then any Geronimo-using POMs written today could be
forward-compatible.

What do you think?

I sure hope we manage to change the groupIds to org.apache.geronimo before anything gets released.
