Lee Thompson commented on CBUILDS-43:
-------------------------------------

Existing maven plugins do almost all of the work of 
project-sources-maven-plugin so instead of refactoring this plugin, I will 
deprecate it entirely.  Remote-sources-maven-plugin is also going to be 
deprecated.

You can grab tarballs off the internet with wagon-maven-plugin noting that 
WAGON-264 bug when dealing with mis-configured websites will cause the tarball 
to be corrupted. The fix to WAGON-264 is for the http/https implementation to 
not ask for compression when it makes an HTTP request and should be an easy fix.

build-helper-maven-plugin can be used to attach the tarball to a project so the 
artifact will be deployed.  This works very well.

maven-dependency-plugin can copy or fetch/unpack the tarball into another 
project noting that there are numerous bugs in the Java implementation of the 
tar extractor in Plexus (PLXCOMP-64, PLXCOMP-69, PLXCOMP-78, PLXCOMP-122).  
These bugs are more complex than the WAGON issue so I will add a unpack goal to 
make-maven-plugin.  With unpack implemented, project-sources-maven-plugin can 
be deleted entirely.  A project needing a tarball that hits a plexus bug, would 
use maven-dependency-plugin to copy the tarball make-maven-plugin to unpack it 
efectively getting around the plexus implementation.

> project-sources-maven-plugin uses a "DerivedArtifact" object implemented in 
> cbuild-utils.
> The implementation could be switched, obsoleting DerivedArtifact, in favor of 
> maven's internal "AttachedArtifact" as used in the rpm-maven-plugin.
> With this implementation, the lifecycle can be compressed as the 
> DeployProjectSourcesMojo.java can be removed as can the DerivedArtifact.java
