Sorry, I've not read this entire thread, but have a quick comment...

This idea of plugin packs could easily be extended to the more generic pom inclusion stuff I've talked about previously. There other things besides plugin version binding that could be bundled up into a reusable package (like a common IDE configuration profile for example).

Sure, grouping up plugins bound to specific versions is very handy and should help simplify many projects (and even help reduce build fragility), but IMO it would be a whole lot nicer to see a general import some pom (by artifact:groupId:version) and merge the contents into the current poms for execution.

I think we can do this just by generating a sample pluginManagement
snippet on the site somewhere. I don't think anything fancy is needed, simply providing the snipet so someone can copy and paste will be more
than sufficient. Having it generated with the current latest release
would then make it a good starting point as most people would want the
latest by default and would only resort to reverting if they hit a
problem with a particular plugin.

IMHO, a link to it should be added to http://maven.apache.org/ plugins/,
because it's the same information in another format.
Plugins groups (or packs) are already organized here, and can be represented
in the pluginManagement snippet as XML comments

WDYT?
