Hi Suraj,
The maven dependency you need for a quickstart is this. Please note the type.
<dependency>
<groupId>info.magnolia</groupId>
<artifactId>magnolia-empty-webapp</artifactId>
<type>pom</type>
</dependency>
Regards, Bert

Well, you posted just before the weekend, it's not like everybody is glued to
their computer waiting to answer 24/7

The reason is probably the fact that there is no snapshot in public repo yet as
you can find by looking at http://repo.magnolia-cms.com/snapshots/
Anyway when developing, it is always better to develop against the released
version rather then against the snapshot. Check your pom files and change
4.3.3-SNAPSHOT version to 4.3.2

Yes, you don't need to build Magnolia at all. All you need to do is to declare
dependency on whatever Magnolia module you want to use and make sure you have
Magnolia repo http://repo.magnolia-cms.com/m2 in your maven configuration or
directly in the pom.
Alternatively, if you don't want to use maven at all, you can just download
binaries and build your project whichever way you like (ant/ivy).
To build valid Magnolia module, all you need to do is to make sure that
packaged jar follows the structure Magnolia expects (module descriptor in
META-INF/magnolia/<module-name>.xml, resoources in mgnl-resources folder and
bootstrap files in mgnl-bootstrap folder)
HTH,
Jan
