Ben,
The two files have different purposes: project.xml describes what your project is about, maven.xml describes how to do stuff which isn't done by maven plugins.
Are your sources located relatively to the project.xml file in a subdirectory called 'MedAmerica_Working'? i.e.
+ projectroot/
+ project.xml
+ MedAmerica_Working/
+ com/
+ medamerica/
+ HelloWorld.java
?In your situation you need the following project.xml:
<project>
<pomVersion>3</pomVersion>
<id>ltc</id>
<name>medamerica</name>
<groupId>medamerica</groupId>
<currentVersion>1</currentVersion>
<organization />
<inceptionYear>2004</inceptionYear>
<package/>
<logo/>
<description/>
<shortDescription/>
<repository><connection/></repository>
<versions/>
<developers/>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>servletapi</groupId>
<artifactId>servletapi</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<build>
<sourceDirectory>MedAmerica_Working</sourceDirectory>
</build>
</project>a 'maven jar' will create a jar file for your project. If you need a war file, then you'll need more configuration.
Why don't you try the 'maven genapp' to look at a standard way of setting up your project? (See the plugin documentation for more information on the different types of projects the genapp can generate for you, http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/genapp/templates.html).
Don't give up on maven too soon. It isn't that hard.
Have you read the excellent article: http://www.theserverside.com/articles/article.tss?l=MavenMagic
?

Thanks for the responses. ok, I updated to 1.0. I also, changed the name from maven.xml to project.xml and this seems to have worked, which is it supposed to be? Now I'm faced with classpath issues. I tried using this approach, but it doesn't seem to work.
<?xml version="1.0"?> <project default="jar:jar" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:u="jelly:util">
