It would be nice if the announcement plugin bound to the validate phase to make 
sure changes.xml exists and has the proper versions in it.

                 Key: MCHANGES-131
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGES-131
             Project: Maven 2.x Changes Plugin
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: announcement
            Reporter: Leif Nelson


When using the announcement-generate goal in concert with the release plugin, 
it would be nice if the announcement plugin was invoked in the validate phase.  
When doing a release:prepare release:perform, the announcement plugin will 
cause the build to fail "after" the poms have been committed and the version 
has been tagged, if you forget to update the changes.xml file.  If the 
announcement plugin bound to the validate phase, it would be called during the 
release:prepare step, and could force the release to fail during validate (if 
changes.xml wasn't config'd right) "before" the commit/tagging operations were 
completed.  This would be a nice feature. :-)

Thanks!
