Just curious, why do you think you need to CREATE an archetype? Most people will simply USE an archetype that has been previously created.
"mvn archetype:create ..." is simply the command to create a new project using an archetype. I'd be very surprised that a new user would want to create an archetype. What exactly are you hoping to do with Maven2?
