%config(noreplace) does exactly the opposite as I understand it. If user
modifies the file it won't be replaced on update.

I started working on new resolver in custom repository [1]. It will most
probably be rolled into main maven package. Original idea was to have a
separate package (something like maven-fedora), but maven package itself would
still have to carry patches to actually use it[2]. So that's why it will be
shipped similarly to how jpp resolver was packaged for maven2. The code is
more-less copied from maven2 resolver, with changes needed because of maven
architecture changes.

> Also, what are the plans to make it buildable with mvn3 itself?

mvn3 is actually buildable with mvn2 already. It won't be able to build itself
unless all bugs in listed in [3] are closed (incorrect pom file names). mvn2
seems to have used pom file from jar file itself if it was available. mvn3
doesn't so pom files have to have correct filenames. 

Plan is to have maven (maven 3) and maven2 packages installable in parallel
until time when we feel m3 is ready to Obsolete m2 (definitely not before
F-16).
