Hey Martin, Gotcha, well I am actually using an old Maven version (2.2.1) because of my needs to support Apache OODT with it ;) However, I am happy to try upgrading to a newer version of 3 for SIS, since it's easy to install multiple mvn versions.
That being said, you can always contact the bui...@apache.org list and/or subscribe to it using builds-subscr...@apache.org. That list is where the infra@ peeps who maintain Jenkins and other CI tools for the ASF can be contacted and software can be requested for the Jenkins machines. Feel free to request an updated version of mvn to be installed there as well.
