It seems like a better default behavior for the compiler plugin would be
to use the current jvm version.
If I'm running maven with jdk1.5 I would expect the compiler plugin to
default to source level 1.5.
Is there a reason that it can't work like that?

It has been answered repeatedly -- check the archives at Nabble.
Also it is very well documented on the Maven website -- both in the
FAQ and in the Maven Compiler plugin docs.
Google also has numerous links when you search for "maven generics".

I'm having a problem compiling my project with maven 2.0.6. Maven is
using JDK 1.3 to compile the java files that contain generics. The
build fails with an error stating that 1.3 does not support generics.
How do I switch JDKs so that maven will use 1.5 instead of 1.3? My
classpath and path variables both point to 1.5.
