Yes - m2 POMs use groupId org.(pico/nano)container.

Don't see any redirections presently in ibiblio.

A new release with nothing's changed seems somewhat strange from a user's PoV. If we supply with such a release also the -javadoc and -src artifacts such a release might be justified though, these artifacts are used in the tool support. 

Alternately we simply fix the m2 POMs - redeploy from branches and simply retag with -m2 postfix
eg https://svn.codehaus.org/picocontainer/java/picocontainer/tags/picocontainer-1_2-m2
(and obviously merge into trunk).

Going down the route of MEV tools is IMO more complicated, more prone to unsuccess,
less reproducible from SVN, etc
