Comment: Adding a note about discovered problems with Maven 2.0.x and DSpace 1.7

Apache Maven 2.0.8 2.2.0 or later (Java build tool)

title"Known issue with Maven 2.0.x and DSpace 1.7.0"

DSpace 1.7.0 does not build properly when using Maven 2.0.x. This is a known issue. The quick fix is to upgrade to Maven 2.2.0 or above. More information on this issue can be found in the following JIRA issue: DS-788.

Wiki Markup
Maven is necessary in the first stage of the build process to assemble the installation package for your DSpace instance.
