I've been attempting to re-build both oVirt and RHEV (from public FTP)
in CentOS 6 but am stuck on the maven2 dependancies.  I cannot find
the SRPMs on RedHat's public FTP for Maven, so I've been trying to
rebuild them from the FC16 SRPMs with little luck.  Does anyone have
any advice on getting maven2 into CentOS 6?  Or how it was done for
Red Hat 6?

Thanks
