I've just installed maven for the first time, and I have two questions.

I've created my project.xml file. Right now, that's all the project has until the repository is set up. But I wanted to see what kind of web site it would generate, so I ran it with "maven xdoc", and every time I run it the result is this:

maven xdoc
 __  __
|  \/  |__ _Apache__ ___
| |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \  ~ intelligent projects ~
|_|  |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_|  v. 1.0-rc2

Attempting to download maven.jar.
WARNING: Failed to download maven.jar.
The build cannot continue because of the following unsatisfied dependency:


maven.jar (no download url specified)

Total time: 6 seconds
Finished at: Thu May 13 04:49:40 PDT 2004


Now, the first time I ran it, at least two other jar files were downloaded (now lost beyond the scrollback buffer), so I know the problem isn't network connection or inability to download things in general. And I did find the maven.jar file in /usr/local/maven-1.0-rc2/lib/ (I'm running on MacOS X). So I'm guessing that I missed a classpath variable or something dumb like that.


The other question I have is how do I set up subversion access. Right now, there is no anonymous access to the subversion repository, and I really don't want to put my password in the project file because it's my shell password, and there seems to be something really really wrong about putting passwords into a build file. Also, I was hoping someone could validate my connection tag since the docs spend lots of time talking about CVS, and only mention that SVN is supported.

<developerConnection>scm:svn:http://svn.computer.edu/project_repos/</ developerConnection>

Obviously, once I have a repository, I can figure this out for myself; I'm much more concerned about the maven.jar issue. I mention the SVN stuff here more to gripe about the lack of documentation for SVN support; it took 10 minutes of searching the maven site and google before I finally decided SVN support is integrated and not just planned.

Thanks!

Mark
