Geert Schuring commented on MASSEMBLY-459:
------------------------------------------
I completely agree with the reporter that assembly descriptors should be picked
up automatically if they are found in the src/main/assembly directory. In my
opinion assembly descriptors found there should not even have to be listed in
the plugin configuration.
> Assembly descriptors should be loaded from standard location.

> Key: MASSEMBLY-459
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-459
> Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-5
> Reporter: Emerson Farrugia
> Assignee: John Casey
> Priority: Minor
>
> The Maven standard directory layout uses "src/main/assembly" as the location
> for assembly descriptors.
> (http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html)
> 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
> location, specify file.xml in the plugin configuration, and trust in
> conventions that the plugin will find it?
