- The first thing to do if you want to use Maven is download and install it.
- The build has been tested with version 1-rc3 so use this or a later version if possible.

- One of the main differences between Maven and plain ant is that Maven manages
- external dependencies for your projects and (at least in theory) you should no
- longer have to store third-party jar files in your CVS tree. It maintains a local repository of
- versioned libraries and shares them between your Maven projects. If it can't find the necessary
- files there it will attempt to download them from the main Maven repository at www.ibiblio.org/maven.
- So to use the Maven build, you need to have a network connection available for the inital download of
- the project dependencies (and any others that Maven itself requires).
- </p>
- <p>
- Once you have Maven installed, building the project should be as simple as typing "maven jar"
- from the command line. Providing there are no failures in the test suite, this will create the
- project jar files in the "target" directory. For more information on using Maven, have a look at the
- <a href="http://maven.apache.org/">Maven web site</a>.
