15 December 2005 - Apache Maven 2.0.1 Released

The Apache Maven team is proud to announce the release of Apache Maven 2.0.1.

Maven is a build system that provides software project management and dependency comprehension. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven manages a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central place.

This is primarily a maintenance release, incorporating improvements to:


  • Artifact and Transitive Dependency handling
  • POM inheritance and interpolation
  • Multimodule Builds
  • Plugin support
  • and much more...


Also, some highlights associated with this release are:

  • Site documentation improvements
  • Support for mojos written in Ant


The Maven team would like to express thanks to the user and developer community for their testing, feedback and contributions that have made Maven 2 even more stable!

New users can get started with Maven now using the getting started guide: http://maven.apache.org/maven2/guides/getting-started/index.html
