I'm really struggling with the way the maven2 site is organized. I'm on the getting started guide http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/index.html
I get to the point where it mentions "How do I make my first Maven project" and it talks about Archetypes. I figured I'd like to see what archetypes I can use since the one it shows seems to make a jar (and I'm curious about ears and wars as well.) So I lick on the link right there in the description "Introduction to Archetypes" and I'm brought to this page which says very little. http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-archetypes.html So I figured I'll browse the site and try to find out how I can find a list of archetypes. Now where would you go on the site to find this? I'd think this would be important information? I've been looking everywhere. I shouldn't have to go to a FAQ for this important information, but more on that later. So I'm not going to the FAQ and searching all the menu items. By accident I happen to look at plugins and I noticed an "archetype" plugin so I click on that and get some decent info but still no explanation of what archetypes are available. Eventually I give up and figure I'll browse the FAQ. There happens to be a link "How do I get a list of archetypes" but when I click on it I get a 404 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/archetype/trunk/maven-archetypes A frustrating start for me. I hope it gets better. -- Rick --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
