I  had exactly te same experience with maven the first time I (with
other people from my company) produced our first project's sites.

My first motivation was in assessing reliability and quality metrics.

As you can see, I made some concrete proposals to reach this goal and
am currently trying to implement some kind of proof of concept that
would. But maven is a huge underdocumented beast to tame, even with
the kind support of the list. 

I am currently trying to create a centralized RDF database using a
plugin (ie. not touching on maven core) but I have basic problems to
extract informations from my plugin's environment. Progress will be
slow but there seems to be more than one people interested in it so I
am eager to show something that could form the basis of a maven
component.

Not sure of translation. Is this the same as "brosse à reluire" in
french ?
