Manfred,

Thanks for the reply and the tip about pastebin - never heard of it. 

I have created two pastes in the pastebin 

My pom.xml  http://pastebin.com/dRtyGVGz
My settings.xml  http://pastebin.com/NHK60YBG

All the documentation that I have seen so far has suggested exactly as you say 
that maven 3 and maven 2 are compatible.  If you would like the error output 
from the maven 3 build I can supply that as well. 

I can remove my entire local maven repository and get maven to download 
everything again to see if this helps?

Cheers,
Martin

Maven 3 should be a drop in replacement. You might have to show us your 
settings file.

Also I would get rid of the manually installed artifacts since they most like 
dont have the pom file (unless you added it as well) and will cause you issues.

In terms of file you will have to use pastebin or a gist since no attachments 
are allowed on this list.
