  All contributions are welcome!! (new features, patches, documentation etc..)

* Get the sources from scm

  See {{{./source-repository.html}Source repository}}

  Or you can use git mirrors:

  * git clone {{{git://git.apache.org/tomcat-maven-plugin.git}git://git.apache.org/tomcat-maven-plugin.git}}
  or {{{http://git.apache.org/tomcat-maven-plugin.git}http://git.apache.org/tomcat-maven-plugin.git}}
