I think the outcome of the other vote doesn't change much.
The following scenarios are possible:

a.) The vote fails and maven stays at aether 1.11. In this case we still should 
ship a 3.0.4 to fix a few bugs on our side.

b.) The vote passes and aether @eclipse must change package names + GAV then it 
will certainly take a bit time on both sides. So users still could upgrade to 
aether-1.12 manually if they want.

c.) The vote passes and aether GAV and package names are allowed to remain 
com.sonatype.* In this case users might also manually update if they want.

In any case we should ship maven-3.0.5 once there is a new aether version 
shipped by the Eclipse Foundation AND we did run sufficient tests with this 
version on our side.
