he will use a different Homebrew form, which will give you maven 3.0.5 instead

I tried this on my Mac and it is working on installing 3.0.5!

If nothing works and you can use a similar version, try the following:

 brew install maven30

If nothing happens, try to restore the installation:

 cd ~/Documents mkdir BrewRecovery cd BrewRecovery curl -OL https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ilovezfs/21a741a78927a17b9ad1/raw/fef5866ccd51f07a9635fcb1096e8df0479af01b/Brewfile-deanchester.brewfile md5 Brewfile-deanchester.brewfile
