Emerson Farrugia commented on MASSEMBLY-459:
--------------------------------------------

I'm not sure I follow. If the "src/main/assembly" directory is the advertised 
location of assembly descriptors, it should probably also be the default 
location for component descriptors. I fail to see why 

<plugin>
  <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
  <configuration>
    <descriptors>
      <descriptor>file.xml</descriptor>
    </descriptors>
  </configuration>
</plugin>

would look for file.xml in ${basedir} instead of in 
${basedir}/src/main/assembly.

> The maven-assembly-plugin does not search this directory at all (let alone 
> first) for descriptor files. Should we be able to put file.xml in that

> conventions that the plugin will find it?
