I am a newbie trying to run the first command in Chapter 2 from 'Better
builds with Maven.pdf' book. When I run this command:
mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app
I get the following error :

I have tried to look for a solution to this in this forum. There was this
suggestion:
"That version isn't in Ibiblio;
http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/archetypes/maven-archetype-quickstart/
1.0-alpha-3 looks to be the latest one in there, try that instead."
I tried to get the latest version from the above link. But the site had both
jar and pom.xml for that version, I did not know which one to download. Also
the jar file was not in a downloadable form.
The other suggestion was to run -U command to force an update. So I have
appended -U to the above command and tried, but was not successful.
Can someone help me in solving this...
