This commit introduces three changes: user-level properties that are separated from the execution properties, where execution properties contain envars, sysprops, and user-level properties...user-level properties are useful for POM interpolation for 2339 and 3355. Second, a ProjectBuilderConfiguration interface and default implementation, to stem the proliferation of method parameters to projectBuilder methods. This was a natural place to introduce it, as user-level properties had to be passed in separately from the execution properties, for interpolation. Finally, interpolation has been switched to use the new plexus-interpolation project, which is based on the classes in plexus-utils. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/components/trunk@644354 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68

HTML format in the docs/ directory.
The most up-to-date documentation can be found at http://maven.apache.org/.
Release Notes
-------------
The full list of changes can be found at http://maven.apache.org/release-notes.html.

-------------------
JDK:
1.4 or above (this is to execute Maven - it still allows you to build against 1.3

Disk:
No minimum requirement. Approximately 100MB will be used for your local repository,
however this will vary depending on usage and can be removed and redownloaded at
