Hi,
I'm trying to document some of the design problems with sort of
exotic plugin use cases, things like aggregation and use of $
{reactorProjects}, that we're running into under the current setup. I
have proposals to address most of the issues, but I'd love to hear
what you would propose...or even tell me about plugin-design issues
that I haven't thought of.
I'd really like to take a whack at the bigger problems for 2.1, but
if that doesn't happen, 2.2 is a fine target for me, as long as we
start the discussion now. We have a lot of experience with what works
and what doesn't from 2.0.x, so let's take advantage of that to see
what we got wrong, and how we can correct it.
The page is here: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Atypical
+Plugin+Use+Cases
Thanks in advance,
