wow, great achievement! this will ease interactions with our community
This is great to be able to continue to modernize infrastructure of a venerable and vast project like Maven and keep it up to date with evolution of practice (who remembers that Maven started with CVS? we did not even keep track of the migration to Subversion [2] :) ) thank you to all the hard work done to make this phase 1 successful and phase 2 is in good shape, even if still a lot to do It's good to still be there after so many years and see the team evolve and drive such changes.
