[jira] [Created] (MNGSITE-361) Use of ibiblio on "Maven Getting Started Guide" is confusing or unclear

             Summary: Use of ibiblio on "Maven Getting Started Guide" is confusing or unclear
                 Key: MNGSITE-361
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNGSITE-361
             Project: Maven Project Web Site
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Rodrigo


The "Maven Getting Started Guide" page mentions looking for the log4j artifact in a web site called ibiblio as if the reader knows what ibiblio is, even though this is the first reference to it.

This is particularly confusing since the previous paragraph mentions [http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/] as the default repository, so it would be natural to go looking for artifacts there, not in ibiblio.

The search "site:www.ibiblio.org maven2 log4j" suggested in the text does not turn out anything related to log4j (Google provides some really old Java news and Bing returns ibiblio's home page).

One gets the impression that the document dates from a time when perhaps ibiblio was used as a repository or reference, and that the document has not been updated after this has somehow changed.
