Re: New site content

Hello there, I recently wrote in an internal blog article about failsafe vs. surefire: "Maven defines lifecycles, each lifecycle is a sequence of well defined phases[0]. Each phase executes bound goals, which are defined as so called Mojo classes in Maven plugins. Lifecycles typically produce out

Re: New site content

I agree with Robert's comment. There is a danger that the page will become architecturally elegant and will correctly describe all of the possible uses of Maven but will be too obscure to be useful as a starting point for a new person. It is sufficiently difficult to understand the basic conce

Re: New site content

Hi, I like the idea of images, however I would avoid a graph to make something clear for new Maven users. Instead I'd prefer a linear model. I think you should split the current model into pieces: A project model contains: - dependencies - a build plan - other project models ( you can call t

Just in case it wasn't clear... I'm looking for comments and feedback On 3 January 2014 14:35, Stephen Connolly wrote: > OK, so to start working on new content I created some pages on the wiki: > > The first page is a 60 seconds overview of Maven's build process > > > https://cwiki.apache.org/co
