is www.maven.org associated with maven?
Hi,
Does anyboy know http://www.maven.org/ ?
I just came across this site, it has nothing but a donation link on
it, no description what it should be and who is responsible for it.
Are they in any way connected to maven, or are they trying to get
donations which are orginally meant to go to the apache maven
project?
BTW: the maven site has no contact info at all to get in contact with
anybody responsble for the project(which I just tried). A users lists
is not the same in my opinion, normally I had directed this request to
the webmaster of maven.apache.org. And I think every site should have
something like "contact" info on it.
Even the address of this list is very hidden under "general
information" - I think most people looking for a mailing list of an
open source project are searching in "help", "documentation", or are
expecting a "lists" link in the menu, but all these dont help finding
this list's address.
Just a hint for making the web usability of the maven site a bit
better, hopefully somebody in charge is reading this...
Henning

It's where the central repository is now. I'll put more of a
description there. Thanks for watching out for us but that's a
friendly site :-)
