Is there any reson (besides resources to write it) that there's no info on building maven with maven?



you need to have a working version of maven to build maven.


What I don't get is: what's wrong with rc1, rc2, rc3 binaries?
shuoldn't they be considered working versions to compile maven sources?

Hence the bootstrap mecanism.


I discoverd this, after using ant to install in maven-cvs, I could then use that maven to build maven,
But I couldn't use the maven-rc1 to work.
Maybe my ignorance, maybe something more...


Thanks for answering

Indeed maven is built with maven,

but you need ant to build the maven
bootstrap. Otherwise you have a catch 22 problem...
