Yeah, I'm slowly getting there. It's just that there appears to be no docs for the goal stuff. Guess I'll have to read source code...
In other news, I was getting a compile error in the plugins-build/reactor. It couldn't find some classes as part of jelly. The dependency was 1.0 dev 3, which I changed to SNAPSHOT and that part compiled ok. After that worked, a lot of other things (plugin builds) started happening which is a good thing I guess. I suspect that was the root cause of some of my problems. doug lochart wrote: >Ben, > >Last time I checked (which was a couple of weeks ago) the documentation >online was still aimed at version b4 of maven.
