maven 2.0 - problems getting started

Dear friends,

I'm trying to migrate my old fashioned maven projects to the new version of maven 2.0

At first steps I'm just trying to run the console command that appear on the getting Started guide at the maven site, but it is simply not working over here.... the creation command runned well, but I can't compile the generated source code for some reason...

the problem is described as:

The plugin'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin' does not exi st or no valid version could be found

any tip?

As a first guess, you're unable to connect to a repository to download the plugin (not likely, if you're successfully building with Maven 1), or that repository is temporarily unavailable.Best bet is to run with -e and see what else it tells you.
