How to download and compile SwingX

Question

This should be basically a question by the newcomers to Maven.

Since SwingX has moved to Kenai, there are warnings on the website that many links are broken .. so this is my best attempt.

• I went to https://java.net/projects/swingx/downloads/directory/releases
• By clicking on "SwingX 1.6.4 All - Sources" (really not an intuitive, hit-or-miss choice for me, but maybe this is a naming convention that other people understand?)
• This loads swingx-all-1.6.4-sources.jar (why is it even a jar and not a zip?)

However, this source does not contain POM.XML.

So, I downloaded swingx-all-1.6.4.jar from the same link, renamed it to .zip, overpriced. It contains META-INF \ Maven \ org.swinglabs.swingx \ swingx-all \ pom.xml:
