+  <question>Why is Maven resolving "dependency:xxx" to the older org.codehaus.mojo:dependency-maven-plugin?</question>
+  <answer><p>
+  	Due to a bug in Maven in versions prior to 2.0.7 (<a href="http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2926">MNG-2926</a>) the search order was reversed and caused Mojo plugins to supercede ones with the same prefix at Apache.
+  	The metadata at mojo was cleaned up when the maven-dependency-plugin was released at Apache. If you are still experiencing this error, chances are you have
+  	old metadata in your local repository or in a proxy / internal repository. Removing /org/codehaus/mojo/maven-metadata.* from your repo/proxy will cause it to 
+  	be refreshed. Alternatively, you can specify the groupId explicitely in your pom (if you are using a bound goal), or on the command line, use groupId:artifactId:version:mojo, ie mvn
+org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.0-alpha-4:unpack
