Version 0.5.1 of XMvn has just been released.
The only change in XMvn 0.5.1 is added support for Apache Maven 3.1.0 and Eclipse Aether. It will not work with Maven 3.0.x any longer.
In a minor version XMvn broke compatibility - that is intentional. 0.5.0 and 0.5.1 are functionally equivalent and the only difference is Maven version support. O.5.0 works with Maven < 3.1.0, XMvn 0.5.1 works with Maven >= 3.1.0.

Does it mean that from now on XMvn new features will be strictly Maven 3.1.0+ ? Aka new features will not be backported to F19 ? I assume that Maven 3.1 will not be.

Yes. All new features are added to rawhide or pre-alpha Fedora branched. After feature freeze no new features will be added.

OK, I just wanted to double check as in the case of macros+friends it makes sense to backport them when possible (no breakage expected) so we can get simpler guidelines sooner.

For simple macros and other things that cannot possibly break anything, yes, it makes sense to backport them. But XMvn is too essential to Fedora Java stack. This combined with poor test coverage makes it too risky to backport any major version.
