I believe this is for documenting Maven 1.x , correct ? 

If so, I would suggest some sort of documentation about the different 
scopes and namespaces of ANT Properties, Maven Properties. the POM 
attributes,  and the Jelly variables. A lot of trial and error and walking 
through 100s of mailing list emails went into discovering what worked in 
getting a POM variable into a property or a Jelly variable anbd determing 
which are visible to whom.

I consider the 
http://wiki.astrogrid.org/bin/view/Astrogrid/UsefulMavenNotes note to have 
saved me HOURs of walking through plugin source to make things happen so 
most of those tricks 

I would actually hope that you would forsake documenting 1.x for maven 
2.0. My reasons really boil down to Maven 1.x feels like a proof of 
concept and Maven 2 has already (in its Alpha version) eliminated almost 
all of the workarounds I had to implement to  make 1.x work on my 
projects. Please take that has kudo's for 2.0 rather than slamming 1.0

Hi there,

Tim O'Brien and I have started a web site called http://www.mavenbook.org. 


One of its goal is to advertise the "Maven: A Developer's Notebook" that 
we
have written for O'Reilly. However the other goal is to publish other
information about Maven. ATM we have 3 types of information there:

- News about the book and more generally news about Maven appearances Tim
and I will be giving. We are happy to broaden this for any presentation 
that
anyone may give about Maven. But we'll need your help for this so that we
know when it happens.

- Tips and tricks about Maven. Tim and I are regularly publishing but 
again
if you have a good tip that you'd like to post, contact me and I'll give 
you
direct access to the wiki (yes, it's a wiki under the hood. Cool, no? 
;-)).

- Announcements. Maven releases and Maven plugings announcements 

I'm curious to know if you find those 3 categories interesting or not. For
example, I'm not sure the announcements category is useful. What do you
think?

Also are there are any other category of information you'd like to see
there. The idea is not to duplicate the resources that you see on the main
maven web site. It's more oriented towards news than towards information 
or
resources (this should be added on the main maven site).

Thanks a lot
-Vincent
