I agree that the way maven is organized helps some...I really like the way
the apache Tomcat products are split up by revision on the main page...it
really makes navigating the page easy.

As for the javadoc I think it is a good idea...I know I've had to dig
through the code to figure out how things were working when it wasn't
explained clearly in the documentation. At least with javadoc developers may
be able to find what the are looking for faster.  The ActiveMQ project
suffers from javadoc laziness as well...so maybe we could help promote this
philosophy there :)
