Game archetype
As much 'fun' as developing enterprise java applications with Maven is, I
would like to think that developing games with Maven would be even better :)
I'm hoping to convince the jMonkeyEngine project to let me mavenize their
project, and in the process create a game archetype supporting 3d
acceleration, sound, input, etc. I think it would be great to get a game-dev
environment up and running with one maven command, as all the existing
tutorials are complex and error prone. I thought I'd mention it on this list
to see if there's any interest in such a project, or if anyone has tried
anything like it so far.

Hehe, yeah I meant the gaming tutorials.
And the tutorials are well written, but getting an environment up and
running with the right native libraries etc. doesn't always work as
expected, so hopefully maven can bring some order.

I think he meant the Java Gaming Tutorials, not the Maven tutorials. ;)

It does sound fun... I've never gotten into game development much myself.

Why convince them? Just do it. I've never seen an oss project that won't
take a submission that makes their lives easier.

"all" of them, eh? Careful, buddy, many people on this list wrote those
tutorials.

Not to my knowledge - go for it.

Hello Kallin,
I don't know about such an initiative, but i would bet
that the mojo project will be happy to welcome it.
