It's working fine, but most packages are still lacking a lot of dependencies,
including some maven plugins

There's no importer and an importer would be a bit limited as it won't be able
to get proper sources most of tge tine, though importing the dependency graph
would be useful already. Would you like to give it a try? :)

Like I said, the biggest issue would be number of packages, and maybe bug fixes
as we currently have only one package using the maven-build-system.
