12 September 2005 - Apache Maven 1.1 Beta 2 Now Available

The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of Maven 1.1 Beta 2

http://maven.apache.org/start/download.html

Maven is a project management and project comprehension tool. Maven is based on the concept of a project object model: builds, documentation creation, site publication, and distribution publication are all controlled from the project object model. Maven also provides tools to create source metrics, change logs based directly on source repository, and source cross-references.

For a list of changes since 1.1 beta 1, please see JIRA [2].

The 1.1 release focuses on the following objectives:


  • Integration of Maven 2 technologies such as Maven Wagon, Maven SCM
    and the new model code

  • Apache Ant 1.6.5 support, including forkmode="once"

  • Upgrade to later releases of dependencies, in particular Jelly

  • Significant improvements in memory usage

  • Improved POM layout

  • Bugfixes

With just a few exceptions [1], Maven 1.1 is backwards compatible with Maven 1.0.

*IMPORTANT: * You must ensure that Maven 1.1 is first in your path if you want to have it installed side-by-side with Maven 1.0.2

We hope you enjoy using Maven! If you have any questions, please consult:
