There is probably no archetype that will work perfectly for the specific way you want to organize your various projects.
In general, I would make a few projects: 1. A central library jar that is built and released on its own 2. A webapp project for each of your webapps (this may be a single parent project with a collection of webapp projects under it for ease of building and versioning, but this will depend on your requirements) 3. A webapp project for each of your clients (arguably this may be a single customer parent project which is composed of several webapp projects underneath) If it makes sense, you could combine 1 & 2 above. Arguably you could even combine all 3 under one super parent. But then assuming you're sharing versions across all projects, you'll be bumping versions of client1-webapp1 from 1.1 to 1.6 despite not changing anything. So I think breaking it up a bit is a better idea. There are too many unknowns for any one of us to suggest the right path. Instead, I think you should make a stab at implementing things yourself, and then refactor and create new modules etc as necessary. Just start now and fix later -- with dependencies etc, Maven makes this a pretty cheap process.
