OK accepted. But if this shouldn't be within the responsibility of the release plugin but of the versions plugin, do you know a possibility to hide this versions plugin goal execution from the users point of view? So is there a way to hook in the versions plugin goal execution into the release process to automate this? Maybe the release plugin should at least be configurable to execute some goals AFTER the release creation phase as this can be done with the '-Dgoals' (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/perform-mojo.html#goals) option WHILE the release creation phase ? I think this should be a good (because generic) solution. What do you think?
