[jboss-dev] Is there a reason the mvn version cannot include 2.2.1?

This one was locked down awhile ago, and I haven't yet seen reason to 
update the allowed versions.  You can relax the restrictions manually 
(Just make sure we're still using at least 2.0.8 due to 
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3606), and if it passes your build 
locally, go ahead and commit the change to the build/pom.xml.

Related note, I know Jesper's had some issues with 2.2.x and I can't 
remember what they are at the moment.  ShrinkWrap by comparison is on 
2.2.1 in order to get some new configurations I needed to its 
distribution assembly, and that seems to work OK.

In short each version of Maven has its own idiosyncrasies so to be safe 
I generally keep things restrictive to reduce surprises between 
environments.
