Maven is +based on the concept of a project object model (POM) in that all the +artifacts produced by Maven are a result of consulting a well defined model +for your project. Builds, documentation, source metrics, and source +cross-references are all controlled by your POM. + +Maven has many goals, but in a nutshell Maven aims to make the developer's +life easier by providing a well defined project structure, well defined +development processes to follow, and a coherent body of documentation that +keeps your developers and clients apprised of what's happening with your +project. Maven alleviates a lot of what most developers consider drudgery +and lets them get on with the task at hand. This is essential in OSS +projects where there aren't many people dedicated to the task of documenting +and propagating the critical information about your project which is +necessary in order to attract potential new developers and clients.
