EclipseLink is not available in the central Maven repository, you need to add its repository manually. For example, to use the "full" version of EclipseLink 2.0 (you did not specify the artifact you are looking for):
<dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.eclipse.persistence</groupId> <artifactId>eclipselink</artifactId> <version>2.0.0</version> <scope>compile</scope> ... </dependency> <dependencies> ... <repositories> <repository> <id>EclipseLink Repo</id> <url>http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?r=1&nf=1&file=/rt/eclipselink/maven.repo</url> </repository> ... </repositories>
This is described on the EclipseLink / Maven page.
As for the archetype you are using, it is impossible to answer without additional information about the project that you want to create. In general, you can always change the POM after the facts.
