Maven's key strength is to say "don't worry about trying to build a jar / war / ear / sync with eclipse / autorun tests / publish javadocs / etc / etc, because I already know how to do that, you go and do what you do best, work on the primary code".I would like this approach very much, but... have you tried to publish javadocs/jxr/surefire/pmd... etc for a multimodule project in an aggregated fashion?
To me, the bigger picture of installing a long term effective build strategy is significantly more important than publishing aggregated reports, a problem likely to go away as soon as a bugfix is released.
I have also encountered significant problems with maven2, and have been quite critical about them, but the underlying design infrastructure underneath maven2 is sound, and this is very important for a project to be built on.
