I am learning to develop Java source packages for F13/14 that are using Maven 2.
Is there an example of a .spec file that anyone could recommend as well as the tutorial how to develop a spec file for SRPM for small Java package that uses Maven 2?
On %build step I am getting non-descriptive errors that may simple be result of some beginners error with Java+rpmbuild but I would like to get some good learning example and a tutorial so that I can continue make progress and contribute packages.
Otherwise, I may remain stuck.
Thanks.

plexus-ant-factory is a good example of a simple rpm with a single jar/pom.
maven-scm is a good example of a complex rpm in that it is small and clean and installs many jars and poms.
Additionally, if you haven't already, check out: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Java/JPPMavenReadme

plexus-ant-factory is a good example of a simple rpm with a single jar/pom.
Actually I would rather suggest looking into either apache-commons-X packages or some of the new maven-XX-plugin packages. They are new, recently reviewed so should be following guidelines. Current plexus-ant-factory has a lot of packaging guidelines violations (including parent directories in %files, define instead of global and that's just from first look)
maven-scm is a good example of a complex rpm in that it is small and clean and installs many jars and poms.
I'd like to point out that while both packages use SCM as SOURCE, it is always preferred to use source tarball. Problem is that a lot of java projects don't provide them.

Stanislav:
Is there a specific small, Maven2 package that has passed Fedora QA that I could use as a model?
If the package is really helpful in getting me off the ground and producing a good package I could also document my process and contribute it to the fedora-java-maven2 documentation.
Thank you

As Stanislav says, the apache-commons-x ones are about as simple as they come and they have been reviewed very recently indeed. Have a look at commons-codec [1] for example.

Thanks.
This looks like a great model package.
