I still think these topics are more geared towards developers...
As long as we cover using the console/gshell in the Admin section and
leave all maven related usage to the developer section (and note that
this is only for advanced users), then I'm fine with keeping them in the
2.2 User Docs.

Thanks David for your comments.
I guess we have some different understandings regarding "Users" of
Geronimo.My understanding is that Geronimo is an application server and its
primary user would be application developers. While they might need to know
what a plugin or a gbean is in Geronimo but don't have to build the source
code. That's where my proposal comes from. And mostly they would read
GMOxDOC to learn how to utilize Geronimo for their application development.
And we have another group of "Users"(actually I'd rather call them
"developers" ^_^), they are more interested in Geronimo structure, kernel
and keen on breakthroughs. In my understanding, they would go to GMOXDEV for
more information.
Any other ideas, please speak up. :)

Do we need to move following topics to GMOXDEV as they are also
about how to
build
1. build a plugin as part of a maven build using the car-maven-plugin.
2. install a plugin using the car-maven-plugin
3. Assembling a server using Maven
These all need to stay in the regular documentation. We expect many
users to do all these activities every day, even if they don't build
geronimo.
thanks

If the answer is yes. Maybe we could have a page to collect all
informations
on how to build with maven at GMOXDEV?So far, I have some topics
coming up
my mind:
a. build Geronimo source code;
b. build/install a plugin using car-maven-plugin;
c. build a new server from the existing one;
d. build GEP
......and more
Any comments?

Agree. Using the eclipse/build.xml file from svn should go in the
GMOxDEV space, as that is really only for developers. Maybe we could
include a Note and pointer over to the Dev docs for anyone who is
interested in using it.
