IMO 2.1.0 should stay as it is, if I'm not mistaken, most recent stable release of maven which is compatible with Java 1.4. When maven 2.2.1 is configured as default external maven installation m2eclipse 0.9.9 refuses to build projects (like maven core plugins) which still require Java 1.4. Maybe 2.0.10 could be removed instead.
