hello all, i'm a bit new to Maven, so please bear with me.. i played around with Maven1 a bit, so i get the basic idea.. i finally got around to needing to do something a bit more serious and wanted to try Maven out.. i noticed that Maven2 b2 came out just today and got all excited.. i read all the docs on the website (no link to a Wiki page that i could find.. little help?), downloaded the sucker, get 'er installed.. i followed the instructions on the Getting Started page and typed:
m2 archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app from my root directory of choice and Wham!
