<span class="emphasis"><em>Apache Maven</em></span>, or Maven for short, is a software project management and comprehension tool
which uses a central <span class="emphasis"><em>Project Object Model</em></span> (POM) to manage a project&#8217;s build, reporting
and documentation generation. POM files (<code class="literal">pom.xml</code>) are included in the projects for
GreenPages.
</p><p>
To install Maven, visit the Maven website (<a class="ulink" href="http://maven.apache.org" target="_top">http://maven.apache.org</a>)
and follow the download instructions from there.
This document has been written and tested with Maven version 2.2.0. The rest of the document
assumes that Maven
commands (<code class="literal">mvn &#8230;</code>) are available from the command line.
