Looks like I found the answer to instantiating the ModelBuilder
new DefaultModelBuilderFactory().newInstance()
>From the javadoc:
* A factory to create model builder instances when no dependency injection
is available. <em>Note:</em> This class is
* only meant as a utility for developers that want to employ the model
builder outside of the Maven build system, Maven
* plugins should always acquire model builder instances via dependency
injection. Developers might want to subclass
* this factory to provide custom implementations for some of the
components used by the model builder.
Great, I think this will work :-)
Best,
Andres

What goes up, must come down. Ask any system administrator.
There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and
those who don't.
To understand recursion, we must first understand recursion.
