[Xmlunit-general] Build Using Maven

[Stefan B. <bo...@ap...>]

Hi all

the maven branch[1] now builds using Maven.  It is a combination of
Harald's branch and ideas of my own based on Sonatype's parent.  I've
uploaded 2.0.0-SNAPSHOTs to [2] in order to verify the build.

Right now the Travis build fails (for Java6 and 7, not for 8) inside the
legacy tests, I'll need to look into that.  I also want to add the
"sumo" jar of the Ant build and need some way to create the overall
javadocs.  And finally I want to extract the test resources in order to
share them between Java and .NET (which is in a repo of its own by now).

But before I wade in even further, I'd appreciate any feedback.

Cheers

        Stefan
