Hi,

That kind of metadata is not handled by packaging, but by the artifact manager.

What do you need this for?
If it's to automatically list all available archetypes, that would be great.
We should generalize that by having a special kind of metadata in special 
groups,
like org/apache/maven/metadata/(metadata-group)/ or similar, so we can centrally
store package handlers, plugin metadata, archetypes etc. spanning different 
groupId's.
There'd be a central place (groupid) in each repository for storing that 
information.

If you need this for something totally different, then n/m the above, just 
wanted to
pitch this in since it's been on my mind for a while now.

Hi

if i would create a new packaging for archetypes,
what is the way (i don't need doco link about lifecycle hook
of a mojo, i already know it ;) )
to have a specific metadata uploaded as long with the
artifact during the install and deploy phases.

My point is how to create metadata and how to
have them automagically uploaded;

for a group, say org.apache.maven.archetypes,
and an archetype, quickstart-archetype, at version 1.0
i need a metadata in the org/apache/maven/archetypes
directory, and in org/apache/maven/archetypes/quickstart-archetype
just like the maven-plugins.

Many thanks for any help.

Regards

Raphaël
