Hm - following that link (which I had seen) there is a heading named "Packaging". So if you examine the pom there is a <packaging> element (jar, war, pom, what are the others?) which is different from the package <phase>. Apparently there is some kind of mapping between packaging and lifecycle. I'm still interested in whether there is a way to find out what lifecycles are available and what phases are part of each lkind of ifecycle - for the pom packaging type I read there is only the install and deploy phases for instance.
Maybe this is what you're looking for: http://cvs.peopleware.be/training/maven/maven2/buildLifecyclePhases.html "Goals are, however, bound to the default build lifecycle by choosing a <packaging /> in the POM" I still don't think of it as a packaging -> lifecycle mapping. It's the default lifecycle with different goals bound to different phases depending on what plugins are invoked. If you come up with a good explanation of all this, please feel free to contribute to the wiki [1] or suggest a patch for the documentation. When I explain it, there's a lot of hand waving and scribbling on whiteboards that I haven't been able to translate to plain text.
