I have also invested some time to add maven tools to my daily projects and it really pays off.
The 2 things I would like to improve on David's excellent job are:
-bootstrapping: how to setup Maven and lift faster (we discussed that before)
-project creation: Maven on the command line is very verbose. As an experiment at work, I made some Fitnesse (http://fitnesse.org)pages to check the pre-requisites for Maven/Java, install custom plugins, create a project or add custom modules. The good thing about that is that you get an installer + documentation about what is being installed.
Maybe we can imagine the same thing for lift: a zip file with maven inside + a wiki site with "executable" pages that would provide documentation and installation features.
Ok, how about an executable jar-file that installs Maven2 if it's not installed, and then launches a /lift/-app via Jetty where you can create new lift-projects and read help-files?
Cheers, -V

+1.... I too wasnt sure about maven to begin with (having come from an ANT background) but the conclusion is that it freaking rocks! David B has done some sterling work and it really is a pleasure to work with compared to ANT. So much so im moving my other ANT based projects over to maven. Converted 100%!
+1!
I was heavily ant biased when I came onto the scene, but after working with lift I converted my main bread earning project into maven goodness. Give it a try!
