Brett Porter is a software developer from Sydney, Australia with a passion for
development tooling and automation. Seeking a more standardized and reproducible
solution to organize, build, and deploy a number of software projects across
teams, he discovered an early beta of Maven 1.0 in 2003, and has been heavily
involved in the development of the project since. He is a member of the Apache
Maven Project Management Committee, and has conducted presentations and
training on Maven and related tooling at several conferences and events. He
founded the Archiva project in 2005. Brett is also a Director and Member of the
Apache Software Foundation.
Brett is currently VP, Product Development at G2iX, in charge of the MaestroDev
division. He and his team seek to make developers more efcient by offering
support and services for development and automation tools including Apache
Maven, Apache Continuum, Apache Archiva, and Selenium.
Brett was co-author of the book Better Builds with Maven, the rst book to be written
about the Maven 2.0 release in 2005, and has been involved in reviewing Maven: A
Developer's Notebook and Java Power Tools.
I'd rst like to thank my co-author and friend Deng for agreeing to
participate in this book and lending her experience with Archiva and
Continuum. I am grateful to all of the reviewers that volunteered
their time to help make this the best that it can be. My great thanks
go to all the members of the open source community that participate
in these projects—the developers, as well as those that contribute
patches, detailed bug reports, or answer questions on the user
lists—not only do we build great software together, but I get the
chance to work with truly remarkable individuals.
Finally, my love and thanks go to my wife Laura for sparing some
more of our precious time so that I could complete this book, and for
supporting me in everything I do.
