<faq id="what-is-maven">
<question>What is Maven?</question>
<answer>
<p>
Maven is a tool that is used to process your project information
and sources, not only to build it into
binary form but also to generate information to help you get a
single view of all aspects of your project,
and in some cases related projects.
</p>
<p>
For a full description, see the main
<a href="http://maven.apache.org/about/whatismaven.html";>What is
Maven?</a>
document.
</p>
<p>
Maven has also grown into a project that is building other products
to help in the software development lifecycle<!--,
such as the <a
href="http://maven.apache.org/continuum";>Continuum</a> continuous integration
server -->.

</faq>
<faq id="features">
<question>What are the features of Maven 2.0?</question>
<answer>
<p>
Maven 2.0 has the following major features:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Simple project setup that follows best practices - get a new
project or module started in seconds</li>
<li>Consistent usage across all projects means no ramp up time for
new developers coming onto a project</li>
<li>Superior dependency management including automatic updating,
dependency closures (also known as transitive dependencies)</li>
<li>A large and growing repository of libraries and metadata to use
out of the box, and arrangements in place
with the largest Open Source projects for real-time availability of
their latest releases</li>
<li>Extensible, with the ability to easily write plugins in Java or
other scripting languages</li>
<li>Instant access to new features with little or no extra
configuration</li>
</ul>
<p>
The following features are available in Maven 1.0 and will be
available and much improved in Maven 2.0 through
the coming releases:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Deployment and release management</li>
<li>Comprehensive project information and reporting</li>
<li>Website and documentation building tools</li>
</ul>
</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="m2-goals">
<question>Tell me about the goals of Maven 2.0</question>
<answer>
<p>
You've seen
<a href="#what-is-maven">above</a> the goals that Maven aims to
achieve, however there have also
been questions about why Maven 2.0 is rewritten from the successful
Maven 1.0. In summary, the main goals of
the new Maven 2.0 architecture are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>To be simple to use - it should be more obvious and consistent
about how things are working</li>
<li>Fast - a new architecture and smaller memory footprint make it
as fast as possible</li>
<li>To be able to implement the features demanded that were not
possible under the Maven 1.0 architecture</li>
</ul>
<p>
Unfortunately, to reach these goals - we've had to sacrifice
backwards compatibility to do this. Instead of
making many small incremental changes that would break
compatibility often over time, we decided to build on a
new, solid base that can be reliable for the future, and also to
maintain the existing Maven 1.x product to
ensure that existing users are not left out in the cold.
</p>
</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="tech-review">
<question>What does Technology Preview mean?</question>
<answer>
<p>
While Maven 2.0 is quite useful as is, it does not yet have all of
the features of it's predecessor, and has
some limitations that may impede it's use on a day-to-day basis in
your projects.
</p>
<p>
This release is being made available so that people who are
interested in the future of Maven can take a
sneak peek, while those interested in becoming early adopters can
get involved in the development and
direction of the project.
</p>
<p>
For more information on whether this release of Maven 2.0 should be
used in your environment, please consult
<a href="maven1.html#m1-or-m2">this topic</a>.
</p>
</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="release-schedule">
<question>How often will Maven 2.0 be released?</question>
<answer>
<p>
We are working to a 4-5 week release cycle, meaning that there will
be at least one release per month.
</p>
<p>
The first releases such as the technology preview will be
designated "alpha" releases, indicating that
they are not yet feature complete and there are outstanding bugs.
Following that, "beta" releases will be
made available where introduction of new features will be
restricted and the focus on improving usability and
stability. Finally, one or more release candidates will be
distributed for testing that are genuinely believed
to be final, with the expectation that a final release would be
available shortly afterwards.
</p>
<p>
We will continue with the successful technique from Maven 1.0 of
making plugins available on a separate
release schedule so that new features can be obtained as they are
ready and tested.
</p>
</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="get-involved">
<question>Can I get involved?</question>
<answer>
<p>
The Maven project welcomes anyone that wishes to contribute to do
so by providing patches to the source code,
participating in design discussions, or to help out on the users
mailing list by answering questions.
</p>
<p>
Frequent contributors recognised by existing committers to the
project may be asked if they would like to
join the project.
</p>
<p>
For more information, please see
<a href="http://maven.apache.org/contributing/help.html";>How to
Help</a>.
</p>
</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="get-help">
<question>Where do I get help with Maven 2.0?</question>
<answer>
<p>
Help for both Maven 1.0 and Maven 2.0 can be obtained by
subscribing and posting to the
<a href="http://maven.apache.org/mail-lists.html";>Maven Users
List</a>. If you are posting about Maven 2.0,
please make that clear in your email.
</p>
<p>
You can also join us on IRC at
<code>irc.codehaus.org</code> on
<code>#maven2</code>. This is available both
over
<a href="irc://irc.codehaus.org/#maven2">IRC</a> and
<a href="http://irc.codehaus.org/";>HTTP</a> for those behind
firewalls (enter
<code>#maven2</code> in the
<i>Channel</i> box).
</p>
<p>
Please remember that is is a preview release, so please be patient
with features that are not yet implemented,
and be prepared to do some research and to help out yourself
wherever possible.
