Does it have to be called geronimo-plugins.xml? or can it be something like geronimo-plugins-1.1.xml? And does it need to be in the root, or can it i be in a branch of the tree?

There's one non-standard file (geronimo-plugins.xml), but it has to go
in the root directory of the repo and be maintained (updated every
time a plugin in the repo is added, removed, or updated).  I have
heard the Maven guys say they could handle that, but I'm not sure if
they meant "someone could implement something" or "it would work right
now" -- I kind of suspect the former.

Thanks,

I don't understand the issues with using the maven repo as a plugin
repo.  sorry, I haven't been following the discussion that closely.
I was under the impression that a plugin repo had to include a bunch
of non-maven-recognized files in order to be useful.  If we are to do
this I think we need a clear and definitive opinion from the m2 folks
that this will not get in the way of repository maintenance.

My opinion at the moment, based on very little info:
-- if the maven guys assure us that using a maven repo as a plugin
repo will never cause problems, lets do that.
-- if there is a measurable chance it would cause problems now or in
the future, lets have a separate plugin repo.
