The general concept with Maven would be that you should divide your code up into "modules" along whatever lines that make sense to you (1 module per pkg may be reasonable for your specific implementation, I suppose).
Then you set up dependencies between the modules via each one's pom.xml file, and perhaps establish a "parent" which encompasses all modules. This would be set up like: parent/pom.xml parent/pkg1/pom.xml parent/pkg1/src/main/java/com/abc/xyz/pkg1 parent/pkg2/pom.xml parent/pkg1/src/main/java/com/abc/xyz/pkg2 parent/pkg3/pom.xml parent/pkg1/src/main/java/com/abc/xyz/pkg3 parent/pkg4/pom.xml parent/pkg1/src/main/java/com/abc/xyz/pkg4 So you would have probably 5 pom.xml files if you implemented this. You should do some reading (Better Builds With Maven etc) and look at sample projects (many open-source projects use Maven, and you can browse their code repositories to see how things are laid out and check out their pom.xml files) to see how this might apply to your specific situation.
