Recently, Maven's development efforts were > split into three major goals. First, the Maven 2.0.x code line will > be minimally maintained for regression fixes; the 2.0.x series > should be entering end-of-life mode soon now that 2.1.0-M1 is out. > > Next, the 2.x series aims to accomplish a relatively conservative > series of new features, improved implementations, and other changes > that bring with them too much risk to be appropriate for a revision > release on the 2.0.x version series. Each of these releases - 2.1, > 2.2, and so on - will be preceded by a formal release plan. > > Finally, the 3.x series is the home of Maven's more aggressive > improvements, including wholesale reimplementation of subsystems and > the introduction of major new features. > > This means that all discussions in the past that referred to Maven > 2.1 now apply mainly to Maven 3.x, currently under development. We > will backport some of the smaller features to the 2.x version > series, provided we can contain the risk of these features and > provide a smooth transition from one version to the next for the user. > > You can download Maven here: > > http://maven.apache.org/download.html > > > Release Notes -
