I don't think Maven itself cares about underscores, so initially this just sounds like a bug. However, I do see underscores used in filenames in the the nmaven local repo, so perhaps it is a special character for nmaven? If there is some technical reason nmaven can't have underscores in the groupId, we need to document it, and make sure things like the project import feature don't suggest or generate poms with underscores in the groupId. -- Wendy
