Spring MVC 3.1 Quickstart Maven Archetype

By

In order to make the creation of each project repeatable and easy process I decided to create Maven archetype for that puropose. Currently it is a snapshot version that support basic Spring MVC 3.1 project with JPA2.0 and Apache Tiles. See more details on the spring-mvc-quickstart-archetype project page how to get started with it.

If you have any suggestions or you would like to join this project, please let me know.
