As we wrote on the Wiki, please don't use this archetype (many things have to be removed before it becomes "good enough"). Or maybe use it as an example from which you'll copy things one after the other, when you're sure you understand what you're doing.

Oh, I simply followed the tutorial you pointed me to (http://mojo.codehaus.org/gwt-maven-plugin/).

Well, I meant to point you to the plugin and its documentation, not necessarily the "tutorial" part of it.

 

Are there several "gwt-maven-plugin"s around there?

Actually, yes, but the other one is experimental so you won't really want to use it as you're just learning Maven.

 

Where is a tutorial that gets me started?

I don't know about a "tutorial" per se, but for me https://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/wiki/WorkingWithMaven is where you'll want to start.

Given that you already know GWT, I'd start "from scratch": create the POM manually and add things incrementally until you reach a point where you have something usable. IMO that's the best way to learn because you're forced to read docs and other projects and understand what you're doing; it takes longer but at least you should know how everything's tied together. YMMV though, but then I'm not the right person to ask for advice ;-)
