• Introduction to Apache Maven 2 by Sing Li   - [Clicks: 374]
  Modern software projects are no longer solely monolithic creations of single local project teams. With the increased availability of robust, enterprise-grade open source components, today's software projects require dynamic collaboration among project teams and often depend on a mix of globally created and maintained components.

This tutorial gets you started with Maven 2.
