I'm not sure you want to get rid of Maven 1 support too quickly, if you
want to keep it easy for folks using Image Gallery in Sakai to try it
out or use it in production in their deployments.  Sakai 2.5 and beyond
are Maven 2, however, most folks are going to be running Sakai 2.4,
which is Maven 1, through April/May of next year.
