What helper module are you talking about?
I'd rather us not spend too much effort trying to make the car plugin
super-uber awesome in all situations and versions... that would be a
waste. If you want to spend some effort, then rip out the need for
car files and this problem (and all of he other car related problems,
past present and future) will go away.

+1 I like this plan.
Anywhere we have common version generic logic, I think we should
pull it into a helper module. Assuming we find some code, I
suggest we create the helper module as a peer to trunk to avoid
version specific stuff creeping in.

The car-maven-plugin is used as part of the geronimo build in G 1.2.
This plugin is also very usefull to build Geronimo plugins
targeted to G 1.1,
but has recently changed in a *slight* incompatible way.
However, I think that:
* it may be difficult in the future to ensure that a single
maven plugin
will be able to create car files for all past and future
version of Geronimo
* G 1.1 is out and a minor release is about to go. I think that
it will benefit
users to be able to write Geronimo 1.1 plugins wihtout
relying on a
snapshot plugin.
Hence, I propose that the plugin be forked to a new location,
/devtools/maven-plugin/geronimo-1.x/car-maven-plugin
(any better idea ?)
and that we release this plugin at the same time that the 1.1.1 is
out.
Thoughts ?
