In fact I *hate* modifying the POM just to skip things *temporarily*. This bears the risk to inadvertently add POM changes to a commit. Having a command-line-only way to *temporarily* override settings is a real bonus for *quick* work with Maven. Actually I would love to have a generic solution that allows me to override *anything* in the POM using a syntax like `-override project.build.plugins.plugin... etc ...`. But this is a different story. ;-) So to sum up, if we all are +1 for the PR as it is, but just Robert is -1, then this effectively leads to rejection of this PR? If *that* is how this community works, then certainly I will take Robert's proposal (but I would be rather sad as it effectively means that Robert's opinion is worth more than the voices of all those people out there that keep telling him that *they* want to have skip for each goal). Don't get me wrong, if this is how Apache works, I am OK with. But I always thought that it would be a good thing to listen to the users's requests. And as Robert said himself: They *keep* asking for skip (and IMHO for good reason). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
