Can you give us an example pom.xml that uses the plugin and briefly describe the usage?

That will create a folder named sometest containing a project that creates a helloworld sca zip contribution, you can run that by changing into the sometest folder and entering "mvn tuscany:run" and you should see tuscany start up and output "hello world" Let me know is that does/doesn't work no one other than me has ever tried it as far as i know. ...ant
