Aether is not Maven ;)

The only maven-thing is a maven-aether-provider. Aether is a system to bind
to any kind of artifact resolution systems.
So, you will not find any settings.xml parser, unless you look at maven
itself - which can do, of cause. Some for default repository: this (i
think) comes from the super pom in maven install directory.
