+### Fixes with compatibility implications
+
+### Improvements
+
+### Maven resolver plugin
+
+sbt 0.13.8 adds an extention point in the dependency resolution to customize Maven resolvers.
+This allows us to write sbt-maven-resolver auto plugin, which internally uses Eclipse Aether
+to resolve Maven dependencies instead of Apache Ivy.
+
+To enable this plugin, add the following to `project/maven.sbt` (or `project/plugin.sbt` the file name doesn't matter):
+
+    libraryDependencies += Defaults.sbtPluginExtra("org.scala-sbt" % "sbt-maven-resolver" % sbtVersion.value,
+      sbtBinaryVersion.value, scalaBinaryVersion.value)
+
+This will create a new `~/.ivy2/maven-cache` directory, which contains the Aether cache of files.
+You may notice some file will be re-downloaded for the new cache layout.
+Additionally, sbt will now be able to fully construct
+`maven-metadata.xml` files when publishing to remote repositories or when publishing to the local `~/.m2/repository`.
+This should help erase many of the deficiencies encountered when using Maven and sbt together.
+
+**Notes and known limitations**:
+
+- sbt-maven-resolver requires sbt 0.13.8 and above.
+- The current implementation does not support Ivy-style dynamic revisions, such as "2.10.+" or "latest.snapshot".  This
+  is a fixable situation, but the version range query and Ivy -> Maven version range translation code has not been migrated.
+
+### Bug fixes
+
+- sbt doens't honor Maven's uniqueVersions (use sbt-maven-resolver to fix). [#1322][1322]  by [@jsuereth][@jsuereth]
+- sbt doens't see new SNAPSHOT dependency versions in local maven repos (use withLatestSnapshots + sbt-maven-resolver to fix) [#321][321] by [@jsuereth][@jsuereth]
+- Property in pom's version field results to wrong dependency resolution (use sbt-maven-resolver to fix). [#647][647] by [@jsuereth][@jsuereth]
+- Maven local resolver with parent POM (use sbt-maven-resolver). [#1616][1616] by [@jsuereth][@jsuereth]
+
+// Possibly fixed, need verification.
+- 1676 - SNAPSHOT dependency not updated ???
+- 679 - Incorrect Maven Snapshot file resolution ????
