I said that it is hard because with maven I step on rake from time to time.

By the way I have read the Better build with maven book. 

And my idea will be more correct: not maven hard, but maven is bad
documented on its web site.

Denis,

Will all due respect, do you really wish to just read a page and get running
and fully understanding Maven?
Do you really say Maven is hard because you didn't understand your very
first plugin encounter, which happens to be nothing less than the EAR
plugin?

Maven is a complex system that simplifies projects, but it does so with
concepts that need to be viewed.
You need to read the book. You need to read it so you will understand.

If you're a fast reader you'll be doing Hello World in less than two hours
knowing what you are doing.

Sincerely,
Rodrigo
