| Release Notes - Maven 2.0.4 |
| |
| The Apache Maven team would like to announce the release of Maven 2.0.4. |
| |
| Maven 2.0.4 is available for download from {{http://maven.apache.org/download.html}} |
| |
| Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model |
| (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central place. |
| |
| The core release is independent of the plugins available. Further releases of plugins will be made separately. |
| See {{{http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Maven+Plugin+Matrix} Maven Plugin Matrix}} for more information. |
| |
| We hope you enjoy using Maven! If you have any questions, please consult: |

| * the maven-user mailing list: {{http://maven.apache.org/mail-lists.html}} |

| * 2.0 Release Notes |
| |
| Maven 2.0 is a rewrite of the popular Maven application to achieve a number of new goals, and to provide a stable |
| basis for future development. |
| |
| This release includes the following new features and changes since Maven 1.0: |
| |
| * Significantly faster and smaller than previous releases. |
| |
| * Improved dependency management including dependency closures (transitive dependencies), version ranges, automatic |
| build numbering, and automatic updating on a configurable interval. |
| |
| * Defined build lifecycle. Any type of project can be built using standard commands such as compile, test and |
| install. |
| |
| * Improved reactor operation. Built in support for multiple projects and without the need to perform a full install |
| cycle to compile all projects. Includes support for project aggregation. |
| |
| * Improved plugin architecture, with plugins that can be written in Java and scripting languages such as Beanshell. |
| |
| * Unified project definition. All information required to build is contained in a single POM, including project |
| information, dependencies and plugin configuration. |
| |
| * Improved repository support, including separated snapshot repositories, a new more managable layout and per-project |
| definitions of new repositories. |
| |
| * New site management tools that support multiple input and output formats. New input formats include wiki-like |
| APT format, docbook while continuing to support traditional Maven XDoc and FAQ format. |
| |
| * Reporting API for producing project information and reports in a standard way. |
| |
| This release is considered stable with a feature set that encompasses and supersedes Maven 1.0. |
