This might just be indicating that somehow you had the needed dependencies for 2.3.3 already in the default maven repository location, but didn't for karaf 3.0.0... by default everything should have been available already downloaded but maybe you had something in the deploy directory? Or maybe it was just a finnicky thing with Maven? I've had Karaf 3.0.0 running on Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 without any issues. I know Maven like the back of my hand so that is always setup right. I have seen instances where if a connection can't be made by Maven to at least retrieve a metadata xml file about an artifact it will fail the retrieval and in this case it could cause Karaf not to start up. I'd say this is guarenteed to be related to an artifact resolution issue due to Maven not being able to communicate through the proxy when Karaf 3.0.0 starts up for whatever reason. With a correctly functioning Maven you should have no issue. If you still do, there will be something in the karaf log to indicate the issue. Post the error and I'm sure I (and others) will be able to help you past the issue.
Also, your settings.xml by default should be in the .m2 directory of the user running karaf. The local maven repo will be created there as well. Also, not sure what version of Maven you are using, but it just occured to me the other day that I was having some weird issues with Maven 3.0.3 and Maven 3.0.4 running behind a proxy. When I used the latest 3.1.1 (I think is the latest), I didn't have that same error (which I never saw on any other Windows boxes).
