Peter, the jbehave-maven-plugin is not coupled with jbehave-spring.
If you want to use Spring 3.0.5 instead of 2.5.6, all you need to do is use dependency management to override the transitive dependency. I've modified the trader-spring example pom.xml to show this in action. https://github.com/jbehave/jbehave-core/blob/master/examples/trader-spring/pom.xml If you run: mvn dependency:tree -Dspring.version=3.0.5.RELEASE you'll see that the 2.5.6 version is overridden with 3.0.5. Note that you should not configure your dependencies at the plugin level, rather at the POM level. The spring trader example runs fine with both Spring 2.5.x and 3.0.x - as well as mvn 2.2.1 and mvn 3.0.2.
