The current Maven s2i build includes -Dfabric8.skip=true [1] but not -Djkube.skip=true [2]. JKube is the newer replacement for the fabric8 suite of tools. I think we should leave the -Dfabric8.skip=true for now as lots of existing workloads most likely still use this. Without this, an application wanting to use java s2i using Maven will have it's build blow up unless they add the environment variable

MAVEN_ARGS_APPEND=-Djkube.skip=true

to their build config.
