Free Maven 2 Book

A free book about Maven is available from Margere.

The good think is that the book does not mess with the legacy Maven 1 that differs very much from Maven 2.

Besides the first introductory chapters I found very useful chapter 4 that address the topic of building J2EE applications with maven. The chapters also provides many examples of using the profiling options of Maven2 with the cargo plugin, for deploying and testing J2EE applications into J2EE applications servers.

Unfortunately, the cargo plugin does not support JOnAS my favorite application server.
