<section name="Introduction">
<p>Starting with Maven 2.0, plugins can be written in Java or any of a
- number of scripting languages. Additionally, Maven tries to stay out of
+ number of scripting languages. Plugins consists of one or more Mojos,
+ each one being the implementation for one of the plugin's goals.
+ Maven tries to stay out of
the way of the programmer with its new Mojo API. This opens up the
opportunity for many Mojos to be reused outside of Maven, or bridged
into Maven from external systems like Ant.</p>
