- This list compares plugin availability between M1 and M2, tracking all publicly available plugins.
- If a publicly available plugin is not on the list, please email the Maven users list asking to add it.
- Note that in M2, no plugins ship with the core. M2 downloads them transparently as needed.
- A red X in the M2 column means the plugin is not yet available for M2.
- We hope to convert all plugins in a priority order (popularity?) and as time permits.
- We need folks in the community to help out with the porting effort.
- If you can convert a plugin from M1 to M2, please email the Maven users list to have your comments added.
- The number of
is an attempt to priorities based on my guess at usage. 
Means whether we need it is not yet determined and so should be the lowest priority
Key:
= Non functional
M1: Exists for Maven 1
M2: Exists for Maven 2
FC: Maven 2 version has all features of Maven 1 version
Doc: Plugin documentation is complete
Repl: Maven 2 Plugin has replaced the Maven 1 version
