I just fixed a few failing jobs [1] to have again a usable Jenkins.

Now I'm facing some issues, I suppose caused by newer Jenkins versions:
- Maven 3.0.5 causes NoSuchMethodError: o.c.plexus.util.xml.pull.MXParser [2]
- I had to switch to JDK 8 for maven-plugin-tools job, since JDK causes 
failures (looks like Jenkins uses a hack to inject JDK 7 as a tool while the 
build JVM is Java 8)

Should we drop Maven 3.0.5 builds and JDK 7?
Notice I didn't check which is the minimum Maven version required...

Or perhaps simply don't use the Jenkins Maven plugin with this Maven 3.0.5 or 
JDK 7 configuration: default build as Jenkins Maven plugin with JDK 8 + latest 
Maven, and other configurations as scripted jobs?

We need to define our common strategy and have a consistent configuration for  
every job understood by everybody

Regards,

Hervé
