1. Maven set up was quick - it even did the first five (of six) steps to deploy the POJO example (book). 2. However, the WAR file that it created, when deployed on Tomcat version 4.1.30, cannot be accessed in a browser at the URL specified in theREADME file's instructions. The URL cited in README is http://localhost:8080/book/services/BookService?wsdl 3. During the FIRST pass of the Maven build goal (which took 3+ minutes) there was a single missing artifact. 4. This errata was not reported on subsequent passes of the MAven build goal. I discovered on an unrelated internet web site that this is a common occurence. 5. Maven works marvelously, but the directions for the examples leave much to be desired. Please advise.
