Javac warnings are OFF by default in the build system!!

I recently discovered that warnings from javac are squelched by maven.  I build on 3 machines.  2 of them never show warnings.  One of them does.  I have no idea why.

Shouldn't we have warnings on by default in V3 -- they are PLENTY of them -- so that we can look at getting rid of them?  It seems like fixing FindBugs issues should take a backseat to bona fide compiler warnings.

Does anyone know what magical incantation to add to settings.xml to turn on warnings -- the maven doc is kind of painful....
