Its easy enough to make a new artifact, published to say org/apache/

But to make that work, we'd need to update the plugin code to look
for a geronimo-plugins-${geronimo.version}.xml before it looks for a
geronimo-plugins.xml, but that is very minor.

OK now I'm starting to understand how this could work.  But still
being a maven newbie I'm fuzzy on the details.  From what I can see
this can be implemented in two stages, first create the catalogs at
geronimo.apache.org/plugins and then migrate them to the maven repo.
Or there may be compelling reasons to just create a copy of the
catalogs in teh maven repo instead, probably needs some more
thought...

Unless there's some concern I will start on the first stage right away
and create a separate JIRA for the second stage.  Transitioning
between the stages should go smoothly since there's a level of
indirection for looking up the default list of repository catalogs at:
