Sergei Ivanov commented on MNG-3092: ------------------------------------ @Scott, Joniec, Kunalkumar and other recent contributors to the discussion Setting the differences aside, we have got two things in common: # all of us want this issue to be resolved in some way # none of us are Maven committers I would like to join Scott in his plea to hear at least something from people who are responsible for pushing Maven forward.

MNG-3092 probably holds a number of records: as the longest-standing, the most watched and the most voted for issue.
