Summary: on website, Maven Getting Started page, sample pom.xml has no

> Key: MNGSITE-410
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNGSITE-410
> Project: Maven Project Web Site
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: website
> Reporter: Tim Stewart
> Priority: Minor
>
> On web page [https://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/] the sample
> pom.xml does not contain a <description> element, but below the sample
> pom.xml it says: "This is a very simple POM but still displays the key
> elements every POM contains, so let's walk through each of them to
> familiarize you with the POM essentials: ... • _description This element
> provides a basic description of your project. This is often used in Maven's
> generated documentation._"
> So the explanation of the "description" element assumes the pom.xml contains
> one, but it does not.
> Recommended fix: include a "description" element in the sample pom.xml. Or,
> alternatively, remove references to the description "element" from the
> bulleted explanation of elements below the sample pom.xml
