> {quote}
> I think this way reads better:
> {quote}Maven allows a project to be built using its project object model 
> (POM) and a set of plugins that are shared by all projects using Maven, 
> providing a uniform build system. Once you familiarize yourself with how one 
> Maven project builds, you automatically know how all Maven projects build, 
> saving you immense amounts of time when trying to navigate many projects.
> {quote}
> Changing "to build" with "to be built" and adding a couple of commas.
