Of course missing the point completely.

The Forrest project was discussed on the GENERAL list for the main
project it belongs to (i.e. [EMAIL PROTECTED]).  Therefore,
for all people you are interested and support the XML.apache.org
project--they were included.

Such is not the case with Maven.  It was discussed in the Turbine
lists--not [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Therefore not everyone who
supports or are interested in JAKARTA.apache.org project knew about
Maven.

That is the key distinction.
