Thanks a lot for working on this.  It's pretty exciting to read that
you've built maven from source!

Patch 4 to 22 look good to me.  They are all fairly trivial (very nice
job!).  For patch 3 (java-microemulator) there is a newer version
available on Github.  Maybe we can use that version instead?

And for patch 1 and 2 I'd like to call on Ricardo to have a look.

Once again, thanks a lot!

Kind regards,
Roel Janssen
