that's documented and works (I was missing a dependency... easy to fix).

That is exactly where things are completely fuzzy to my taste:

- it is not clear at all what is the purpose of this database access  
([INFO] [xwiki-packager:import] ??? part of a build?). This would be  
really really needed in order for me to name the database slightly  
intelligently (and maybe use it?? ;-)).
- that page writes what's below... and it refers to a settings  
section of pom.xml. The word settings is wrong, it should be  
properties (I suppose, still need to set it up).

After understanding, confirming (and testing), I suppose I'll be able  
to change the documentation page.
