There is indeed this shorter version:
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=http://tapestry.apache.org
as listed in the tutorial at
http://tapestry.apache.org/creating-the-skeleton-application.html.
Maybe we can add a note on the
http://tapestry.apache.org/getting-started.html page about that
alternative. I think it's kind of a toss up which way is better for
beginners.
