Using Maven [was Re: [WebMacro-user] WM Wishlist?]

yes,
I was really impressed with http://www.werken.com/ which got me going.
see
http://melati.paneris.net/
http://boards.paneris.net/
http://shopping.paneris.net/
http://jal.paneris.net/
http://rbr.paneris.net/
http://pol.paneris.net/
http://jammyjoes.paneris.net/
When I have retrofitted the whole of PanEris' output
since 1999 I will put a top level site together at
http://www.paneris.net/
The benefits so far have been:
1. The checkstyle report which gave me
a checklist for cleaning up Melati code and gives an instant feedback when
somone introduces a new ugliness (the checkstyle errors were at 12 recently).
2. javadoc, which has prompted me to actaully read the javadoc and retrofit it
for the whole of melati, at least at a class level.
Again I will use the checkstyle report to check the rest of the javadoc, by
simply changing the checkstyle.javadoc setting in project.properties I will
be shown all public methods still lacking javadoc.
3. Licence: Melati has evolved, so variations in the text of the licence
header crept in, these were all identified.
4. The use of checkstyle motivated me to change the Poem preprocessor to
handle imports explicitly and remove the * import form.
This also motivated by my recent adoption of http://www.eclipse.org/ which
Maven and now Melati also supports.
5. We had never actually distributed boards, shopping or jal or our
actual projects as jars before.
Maven should enable a complete distribution mechanism.
6. The naming conventions and directory structure imposed are good and
by adhering to them should make it easier for newcomers to Melati.
7. The changelog gives a complete historical view of all cvs changes,
something we haven't had before.
8. I had never used xdocs before.
9. It has the classic psychological motivation of giving you a big return for
a little investment.
10. It maintains a league table of committers according to number of
commits and number of files changed, sad I know but I do like it when
one developer overtakes another!
cheers

I looked at the above site. Is some of the site maven generated?
nice plug for maven below!
