Download it from http://maven.apache.org/maven2/download.html Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information. This release includes 83 bug fixes and enhancements since the previous release on 13 May. Maven 2.0 is a rewrite of the popular Maven application to achieve a number of goals, and to provide a stable basis to take it into the future. While it can be considered quite stable, and future versions are now expected to retain a high amount of backwards compatibility, this is still a technology preview, and not yet complete or considered ready for a production environment. The main new features in this release are: * Improved dependency management * Build profiles for environment specific settings and dependencies * Finalised build lifecycle * Proper handling of derived dependency type such as sources, javadocs and ejb clients * Beanshell plugin support * Improved reporting support, including internationalisation. * Improvements to the Ant tasks * Better plugin management, with the ability to select specific versions for use * Various plugin improvements This release is very near to being feature complete, and the next release will be a feature complete beta-1. We hope you enjoy using Maven!
