Maven is not very picky about group IDs, though it should be more than it is.

I think it is reasonable not to support it, as long as it is handled as a proper error, but by the same token if it worked it need not necessarily be excluded. Either way, the current behaviour needs to change :)

Hi,

Encountered an issue using "Add Maven Artifact" with groupId having an
underscore character.  The characters after that and the underscore
itself are truncated when added as dependency in the pom.xml (e.g.
groupId="my_company" is truncated to "my" ). I haven't seen an
artifact with an "_" character in the groupId, is this supported in
maven by default? If yes,  any idea if we should support this ?


Thanks.
