Dear Maven Gurus,
I am a newbie and absoultely FAN for Maven, and I got some questions (most of them
might be stupid), and I am expected to get your guide:
* Maven has many goal defined, is them depend on each other like target in ANT?
* Is there goals used to check in/check out CVS?
* How to establish and configure the repository of JARs of my own, instead download
from ibiblio?
* How to publish documents to a remote web site using Maven?
* Is there a plan for Eclipse Plugin for Maven (NOT Maven plugin for Eclipse) ?
* How to establish and manage a mail list using Maven?
* Maven takes some time to start, is it always try to connect to ibibio when start up?
* How to start console of Maven?
* The directory layout doc (http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/maven/dirlayout.html)
suggest project.xml file be put under xdocs/ dir, but "getting started/Integrate" says
it "reside in the top-level directory of your project's directory hierarchy", which is
right?
* I try to "maven pdf" against my sample project, it shows:
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Should I provide navigation.xml file? If yes, how the file should be defined? If no
why Maven do not generate it for me?
Finally, Sorry for a long list of stupid questions and thanks in advance!
Kind Regards,
Green
