Ivy is able to parse maven 2 poms and convert it in Ivy files. The resulting Ivy files aren't as clean as if they were written by hand, no magic here, but it works really well, and we are regularly improving our support. So you can either use maven 2 repo directly, or use install task to get the jars and the converted poms under your control.
