Hi Mykel,
The standard on the website is the one we all agreed on about a year
ago. Unfortunately, the genapp plugin hasn't caught up yet :)
http://maven.apache.org/reference/conventions.html
I'm not sure about mevenide: you'd need to task on their lists I think.
Cheers,
Brett

OK. Maybe not. And this may have been covered elsewhere on the list and my
search just not returned it.
And maybe DJs in general and Paul Oakenfold in particular also have nothing
to do with this post.
BUT:
The docs for the ten minute tutorial for m1 appear to produce a different
tree structure than the default genapp call does.
Specificially, the introduction of the main directory to hold all the code
and resources to be deployed with the artifact.
This appears to be a documentation error, but which one is right? Having
never had a reason to
use genapp until today (when I was reading the sample chapter of the
Developer's Notebook), I managed to note that
for about a zillion maven projects I'm working on or have worked, the
structure is intrinsically different from the examples
because I followed the docs instead of using the plugin.
Compound this with the mevenide issue where the New Maven Project by
default produces yet another directory structure also
different from the site docs.
What does this all matter, you might ask? Or maybe instead you might say
STFU, n00b! F13d layouts R 4 l00zers!
I know there's no absolutes, but one of the things I sell maven with is the
ability to allow developers to understand the codebase immediately. Worse
yet,
it was noticed almost simultaneously by...you guessed it...one of the people
I've sold the maven concept to.
So I'm just noting something that might have been beaten to death already,
but if so then could someone point me to the pertinent threads/blogs/sites
so I can stop irritiating everyone on the list?
And if it hasn't, then could someone explain the variance and what's
considered the actual best practice and how soon could we all at least note
the variance in some documentation?
