I think what you are actually asking for is one that is consistent with our documented setup. I think it's still possible to relocate the binaries since the only thing we should document is the /conf/ files.

That said, it would be much simpler to just bundle it as it is, so I'd request that Fedora consider doing so as Jason has said.

- Maven running with a standard JDK and not being compiled with GJC or anything weird like that. With Java being GPL now that shouldn't be a problem

This isn't possible. Java 7 is GPLd, not 5 and not 6.

I'd amend it to be that it must be possible to run it with an installed alternate JDK, but I expect that it would by default have to use gcj. It should be well tested with gcj by Fedora before distributing because I know we sure haven't tested it on there.

- How far into the graph do you need to build from sources
- Would a self-contained Maven repository with the binary dependencies work and then build Maven itself from source or do you want to walk back down the entire graph? - Are you guys willing to compromise and make something that uses our current layout. I think we could live with some symlinks to / usr/bin or whatever

Yes, I think these are the next things to answer.
