Ping me offline and you can have one of the 12 Maven presentations
I've given over the years as a starting point.

I'll be giving a Maven presentation in the next couple of months,

to know if anyone had any good resources on this sort of thing. I
want to
highlight how Maven is significantly better than what we are currently
doing, which is relatively typical: ant scripts with custom deploy
systems
(to push configurations). What are the biggest points that make
using maven
better, I've read the "What is Maven?" page, and I've got the five
main
bullet points. Should I just stick to those?
A google search brings up the following:
http://wiki.wsmoak.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Maven/Presentation
Which suggests that if we've got a working ant build, there's no
real point
to using maven, which surprised me, cause the maven documentation
suggests
that Maven is more than a build system. How do I really make the
case that
it does more than this?

Our achievements speak for themselves. What we have to keep track
of are our failures, discouragements and doubts. We tend to forget
the past difficulties, the many false starts, and the painful
groping. We see our past achievements as the end result of a
clean forward thrust, and our present difficulties as
signs of decline and decay.
