28 28  == Step 2: Configuring your Maven Settings ==
29 29  
30 -Advanced users can skip this step, but it's highly recommended.
23 +Before start using Maven, you have to configure it in order to use the plug-ins provided by WOProject. General Maven configuration is made in a settings.xml file. This file can be found in a folder called ##.m2## in each user's home directory (,,/.m2 on Unix systems and C:ocuments and SettingsserNamem2 on Windows). If this file does not yet exist, you can just create it.,,

25 +You have to define the WOProject plug-in group and the repositories to download the plug-ins. The following xml is sufficient to configure maven for using WOProject-maven plugin:
