I'll try to send a follow-up e-mail in the next day or two that
clarifies the sections of the POM.xml that I'm having some trouble
with.

I'll download a POM.xml file from another unsupported module to see if
it will help me answer my questions.

I'm not sure what you mean by "maven doc". Do you mean the site.xml
file which I asked about?

I have downloaded a short tutorial on Maven, but I haven't read it
over just yet. I need to decide if learning the ins and outs of Maven
is a commitment that I will need to postpone for the time being.

Thanks,
