As discussed here [1], Guice would help a lot integrating nicelly Maven3 into Hudson. It also has a larger user base and doc than Plexus, and has been proposed for a while on this ML as a replacement. The Git branch is also avialable for testing for a while +0 for Aether. It looks technicaly nice according to the code sample [2]. I just share the concern about a major component beeing outside Maven SCM.
