Description:	Java project management and project comprehension tool. Maven is based on the concept of a Project Object Model (POM) in that all the artifacts produced by Maven are a result of consulting a well-defined model for your project. Features include: - Development and management of your project are controlled from the project model (builds, documentation, source metrics, source cross-references and several reports). - A single set of methods are used to build any number of projects that you are managing. - Integration with Gump, a tool used at Jakarta to help projects maintain backward compatibility with their clients. - Site publication based on the POM. Once the POM is accurate your developers can publish the project's content. Maven provides the following: Change log document created directly from repository information; Cross referenced sources; Source metrics; Mailing lists; Developer list; Dependency list; Unit test reports including coverage; Article Collection; Software Development References; Software Development Process Documentation; and more reports using the different plugins.
