It's the "optional" part that is important. Nothing from Apache should
silently pull in LGPL dependencies.

Moving the plugin to Codehaus is probably the best option. If it stays here, we'd have to make the Checkstyle dependency 'optional' and require
the user to explicitly add it to his build.

On a related topic, does Maven find plugins in org.codehaus.mojo without
any extra configuration, or do you have to add the <groupId> ?

IMO is a bad idea to omit groupId anyways... I think that you should always fully qualify plugins with their groupId + artifactId (and version, or use pluginMangement for that).
