----------------------------------
    Comment: was deleted

(was: The ugly timestamp has been removed from the {{pom.properties}} file. As 
soon as you have new archives, it won't be there.)

> Consistent dates in the jar entries

>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: Javier Sigler
>
> Nowadays, Java developers often create Docker images attaching the uberjar or 
> collections of jars to the docker image. However, these jars are time 
> dependant. In other words, each time you create a jar, it has a different 
> hash even though the code is actually the same. This feature leads to the 
> creation of multiple docker image for the same code, significantly increasing 
> the deploy time.
> The two reasons that makes the different hashes are:
> 1. jar entries contains the creation timestamp in at least the last modified 
> attribute. 
> 2. each uberjar usually contains an automatically generated property file 
> with a timestamp located in {{META-INF/maven/$\{package}/pom.properties}}  
> The goal of this feature is to solve the first problem giving a consistent 
> date to all the jar entries.
> I take the liberty of create a github repository with the suggested change in 
> the plugin to accomplish this feature 
> https://github.com/javiersigler/apache-maven-shade-plugin 
> In addition, you could find in the repository a solution of the second 
> problem.
> I hope you could find it useful.
> Thank you in advance.
