I need help to get my existing directory structure into an m2 statndard structure. I also want to know if the m2 structure I create can be made into an archetype so that all groups in our organization can use the same structure easily?

Here is my m1 structure (layout #1):

* fastforward Application
    |
    +->commonJar-subproject
    |    +-> src
    |    |   +-> java
    |    |   +-> test
    |    |       +-> java
    |    +-> xdocs
    |
    +->ff-web-subproject
         +-> src
         |   +-> conf
         |   |   +-> web
         |   |       +-> properties
         |   |       +-> tld
         |   |       +-> xmi
         |   |       +-> xml
         |   +-> java
         |   +-> test
         |   |   +-> java
         |   +-> web
         |       +-> layouts (under WEB-INF)
         |       +-> resources (NOT under WEB-INF. images etc...)
         +-> xdocs


I am guessing at the new web structure as this but not sure (Layout #2):

* fastforward Application
    |
    +->ff-web-subproject
    |    +-> servlet
    |    |   +-> src
    |    |       +-> main
    |    |       |   +-> java
    |    |       |   +-> webapp
    |    |       |       +-> WEB-INF
    |    |       |           +-> (*.jsp, *.xml, *.properties, *.xmi, *.tld)
    |    |       |       +-> (*.jsp, *.htm*, *.gif, *.jpg, *.css, *.js)
    |    |       +-> test
    |    |           +-> java
    |    +-> site
    |        +-> src
    |            +-> site
    |                +-> apt (name?)
    |
    +->commonJar-subproject
    |    +-> src
    |        +-> main
    |            +-> java
    |            +-> test
    |                +-> java
    +-> site
         +-> src
             +-> site
                 +-> apt (name?)

I guess my confusion here comes with the directories in the maven archetype called ear, ejbs, projects and there only being 1 site DIR now.

So let me try to outline my questions:
--------------------------------------
1. Why is the archetype-resources DIR structure under src/main/resources?

2. Is there now only 1 site dir for the entire project?

3. did I rearrange my subprojectscorrectly as depicted in layout #2?

4. Why is there a src/main/java in the ear subproject of this archetype?

5. What is the difference between the primary-source and the projects DIR's?

6. Why did you call the DIR with the web files servlets? Why not something like ff-web-subproject or ff-webapp-subproject? Is there a reason NOT to name it like I had already done in my m1?

Then from the Vincent Massol PPT, I am not sure what to do with the following DIR's:

    +-> distibution
    +-> extensions
    |    +-> maven
    |    +-> ant
    +-> samples
