Brett Porter indicated in the comments on this blog page that SCM settings
could be encrypted, but I'm not finding that to be the case (just wagon server
passwords seem to decrypt in Maven 2.2). Let me know if I overlooked something
in the 1.3-SNAPSHOT line of SCM plugin code...

> Currently, Maven 2.1.x and 2.2.x have support for storing encrypted passwords
> in the server.xml file and decrypting them for authentication to a specific
> maven repository. This task proposes a similar approach so that users can
> store their encrypted password in the server.xml file and the SCM plugin will
> decrypt and authenticate to the SCM server. I would assume this approach
> would use the same Maven crypto mechanism to encrypt/decrypt the passwords.
