What's in my POM for you?

In the talk we will review and analyze the non-obvious points in the capabilities provided by Maven in terms of: defining dependencies, configuring plugins and working with the assembly lifecycle.

Consider the typical problems you might encounter and how to solve them. Consider the nuances of working in a closed corporate environment, and talk about developing your own plugins and archetypes to support the development process; when you might need it and where to start.

We will talk about a tool that we use every day and know not too well to say with confidence what and how you can do with it.
