Outstanding questions (Documentation)
I'm looking for documentation about:
1. Reactor (I'd like to understand more about the inner workings of Maven)
2. Tags available when making a plugin, what properties are available
to me.
3. Are the packaging elements a finite set? pom, war, ejb, ear, jar
Or are there others? Are they described anywhere? The gist seems to me
that they are the deliverable of a project.
4. Profiles (what they're used for, how they might help me) I think I
got enough from: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Build+Profiles
Please let me know if this was the correct place :)

That, the LifecycleExecutor and the ProjectSorter are probably the
things you are interested in WRT the reactor.

Thanks. The plugin-expressions are very helpful.
Can you point me in the general direction for the reactor in svn? I
only found the ReactorManager here:
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/maven/components/trunk/maven-core/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/execution/?rev=326250
I looked through your docs. for some reason it was colored like I had
already visited it. I must have clicked on it by accident.
Thanks again.

Can you point to me the reactor in svn? I only found the ReactorManager
here:

Sure, that level of documentation is coming but for the release the

This is what we use internally and we will eventually generate doco for
it. But you can see what you can use in plug-ins. The rootless and
settings files in particular.

They are not finite, they are pluggable but we ship with a default set.
But you're right some more documentation here would be good. Noted.
