Some libraries that are being stored at Maven Repository have 2 additional artifacts: source-jar and javadoc-jar.

If you're using Eclipse and Maven plugin, the beauty is that when you hit a shortcut key to navigate to either the Definition or the Implementation of 3rd-party open source library, the Maven plugin will download the source code for you and voila, no configuration or anything like that needs to be done with Eclipse (telling Eclipse where the path, etc).

It's powerful.
