Maven 2 uses the standard directory for the projects described here:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html
I'm wondering: are conventions recommended for projects other than the Java library Java, Java EE, and WebApp? In particular, where to place ant files, run scripts, configuration files, sample applications, etc.
Also, what is the convention for placing files outside the src / directory tree? For example, is document distribution in a doc / document (like sibling src) common?
Is there a page that compiles these conventions? If not, can other readers provide examples from their own projects?
