When I try to use Maven as described in the tutorial,

That is not the right behavior of Maven... archetype:generate doesn't
expect a pom to exist already, since the goal of this command is to
generate a pom.
What version of Maven are you using?
mvn -version
should print something like:
Apache Maven 3.0.4

I'm a little concerned about the "-DarchetypeVersion=3.3" flag. I'm
using XWiki 4.0. Is this page out of date?
Indeed, you should use the most recent (stable) version available, so 4.0
Sorry if I haven't given the right details, I
haven't used Maven
before so I'm not sure what I should do next.
Paul.
