Ah yes but this step takes a long time cause all the .jar's are in
the repo. If i'm already a maven2 user then all the .jars are proably
already in my local m2 repo.

Its not months but it is days/few weeks. Given the imminent release
of 1.2 I think this is a bad time to try the whole switch over. But
when 1.2 is out the door might be a good time to try it.
Also the ibiblio push is probably an m1 repo (cause m2 is a pain in
the neck to do manually). So while it works its slower for the m2
user to get a jar from an m1 repo.
