Maven dismystified
From MediaWiki
In this article we present some pointer for those interested on learning how to use Maven as a build tool. Richard Gomes
Consensus is a very difficult thing to find. Whatever subject we choose we will always find someone disagreeing of well established concepts, opinions, theories, etc. The same way consensus is very difficult to find, it's very difficult to find a subject which provokes passioned, diametrically opposite opinions. Oh well... not that difficult! Maven is one subject like this.
Maven is a wonderful tool... if you love it.
Maven is terrible and useless... if you hate it.
Maven is like this. Or you love it or you hate it. Nothing in between.
If you are decided to know more about Maven, this book is excellent:
