I don't think all the issues are openmrs correctable. I had a difficult time getting maven up and going on my mac (suranga helped me). In the end the eclipse plugins didn't work correctly - I always got strange build errors.
But maven worked great on the command line … perhaps the problem was nothing to do with the maven setup of openmrs.
