The download page lists PDF and HTML versions.  I was able to build
myself an ePub version for my Sony PRS-T1 ebook reader, with:
 git clone https://github.com/sonatype/maven-example-en.git
 cd maven-example-en
 git checkout production
 mvn install

The "mvn install" command failed for me, while creating the PDF file (a
403 when trying to load the Docbook DTD, with HTTP, I think).  But ePub
succeeded, and the result was in
 maven-example-en/mvnex-epub/target/epub/public-book.epub

I ran the ePub file through an epub->epub conversion in calibre to get a
more pleasing result in the Sony: I first added some missing metadata
(authors, and some tags), then did the conversion, picking the cover
from the existing epub files (otherwise the cover showed up as a blank
in the Sony reader), and told it not to split on page breaks.
