The nice part of using maven is that most standard stuff works automatically once you do things the maven way. For a simple webapp:

1. Create a pom with groupId, artifactId and version (packaging: war)
2. Add the required dependencies to the pom
3. move the
   • java sources to src/main/java,
   • resources to src/main/resources,
   • webapp content to src/main/webapp,
   • test content to src/test/java and src/test/resources
4. set the compiler compliance version using the maven compiler plugin

That should get you up 'n' running.

I don't know what your ant script looks like, but assuming its a basic script for building, you will need to create a pom.xml file for your project, add your dependencies, and then build it via maven.

For anyone who lands here in future, there is an easier way to find dependencies for maven using the file hashes. So, you won't have to guess artifact versions.

As per the below article, the idea is to generate a SHA1 checksum of the dependency that you want to find the information, then do a reverse search in Nexus repository manager using that hash. For the checksum generation, you can use Microsoft's FCIV (free) utility.
