--------------------------------------

Is there any chance to fix this also in the 2.2.x branch?

> I'm using 2.2.x and was surprised to find that, while valid XML, the following are not valid in a pom.xml:
> <modelVersion> 4.0.0 </modelVersion>
> or
> <modelVersion> 4.0.0 </modelVersion>
> I had expected that the maven xml parser would be normalizing the whitespace, but looked in maven-2.2.x/maven-project/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/project/DefaultMavenProjectBuilder.java and found this in readModel(), line 1609:
> if ( modelSource.indexOf( "<modelVersion>" + MAVEN_MODEL_VERSION ) < 0 ) { throw new InvalidProjectModelException( projectId, pomLocation, "Not
> a v" + MAVEN_MODEL_VERSION + " POM." ); }
