Hi Henning, thanks very much for the help. I've finally found time to work on this, and am making some good progress. I've checked out the db/site module from subversion and I believe I've updated the right files (project.xml and projects/derby/project.xml) I've installed maven 2.0.4 and now I'm trying to figure out how to use it. The first thing I tried was 'mvn --version', which seems to work fine. Then I tried just running 'mvn' and it said [INFO] You must specify at least one goal. Try 'install' Then I tried running 'mvn site', which was just a guess. It said: [INFO] Building Maven Default Project [INFO] task-segment: [site] which seems pretty good, but then it started downloading an apparently infinite number of files off the internet. There was line after line like: Downloading: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/scm/maven-scm-provider-starteam /1.0-beta-3/maven-scm-provider-starteam-1.0-beta-3.jar 50K downloaded Downloading: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/regexp/regexp/1.3/regexp-1.3.jar 24K downloaded I got alarmed after it appeared to have downloaded close to a hundred different things because I didn't really understand why it was downloading all these files and had I maybe installed it wrong? So I interrupted it. Sorry for being such a clueless newbie, but can you tell from the above whether I've got maven installed properly or not? thanks, bryan
