No, I was talking about the pom.xml. Leave out anything you don't
strictly need---that seems to be the best policy. 

The site.xml and the .apt file are a bit of a lost cause within geotools
right now since we can't generate the site without much cajoling. I
would encourage you not to spend much time on those for now. Maybe over
the next year or so, as part of our other work, we will cleanup the
build to the point where we can deploy the website nightly---then it
will be worth putting more into the web sites.

right. Postpone it. But if you get stuck, the web site has info. Many of
the xml blocks of the pom are run for a specific maven plugin and the
web site has info on what each parameter should mean.
