I don't think Maven 1 project can use a Maven 2 artifact as a dependency, but:

1) We've already basically solved the upgrade of Jaxen to Maven 2 -
see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JAXEN-149
2) A Maven 1 project can be semi-automatically convertod to a Maven 2
project, so it shouldn't be hard for XOM - again, see JAXEN-149
3) I opt for a coordinated switchover to Maven 2 and release of Jaxen
and XOM. As to their dependencies, I think you'd have to look hard for
other projects that are still stuck at Maven 1.
