I'll need to resurrect my cool little applescript  widget to change my environment if I do.

I think switching to m3 is likely to cause a few snags when we want to
merge changes backwards and leads to developers tending to use m3 for
everything and so not spotting issues with m2 and stable branches. But
we've got to make the jump some time.

As a side note I have scripts for different maven versions, this is my
mvn3 script and don't rely on the environment too much.

#!/bin/bash

export M2_HOME=$HOME/java/apache-maven-3.0.3/
$M2_HOME/bin/mvn $*
