Hi, Would it be a problem to add the <type> element for Maven RC3? If we make it optional (and default for example to "jar") I think it will be 100% backward compatible. The plugins will not use it for now. But at least the users will be able to start using it to type their projects.
Actually I don't recall why my changes for POM4 were removed from the Maven 1.0 branch as I think they were all 100% backward compatible, including plugins. I need to ask: Why couldn't we support both POM3 and POM4 for Maven 1.0? The only constraint that we will have is that all plugins must continue to work with POM3 till version 1.0 is released.
