In the maven framework, what is the significance of groupId when groupdId defaults to the packageId?
In other works, why bother asking for groupId ?

Please have a look [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3724415/maven-artifact-and-groupid-naming) which discusses this question, perhaps only tangentially. – Tim Biegeleisen Sep 16 '15 at 15:54

What is the `packageId`? Are you taking about the `artifactId`? – Tunaki Sep 16 '15 at 17:55

no referring to artifcatId... when starting up a mvn project we are asked for groupId and then two prompts later.. it asks for a package name which (by default is set to the groupId).. – runtimeZero Sep 16 '15 at 18:52

@SMV You have been asked for groupId, artifactId and version. Afterwards you have been asked for the Java package name which you like to use... – khmarbaise Sep 16 '15 at 20:27
